HD 95127 and Its Radial-Velocity Planet
HD 95127 is a K0 star 2210 light-years away, with an age of 5.5 billion years, a mass of 1.2 solar masses, and a radius of 20 solar radii. Its reported temperature is 4220 K. One planet orbits this host.
That planet, HD 95127 b, was found in 2015 by the radial velocity method, which measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion; repeated wobbles reveal the planet and its orbital period. HD 95127 b has a minimum mass of 3380 Earth masses and an orbital period of 482 days. A minimum mass is a lower bound on a planet's true mass. Its minimum mass is larger than Earth's and roughly 10.6 times Jupiter's mass. The star's radius estimate is larger than the Sun's, and its temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
