Kepler-1988 and Its Super-Earth
Kepler-1988 is a star 1670 light-years away with one planet. The star has a mass of 1.5 solar masses, a radius of 3.13 solar radii, and a temperature of 6040 K. Its reported mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is hotter than the Sun's.
The planet Kepler-1988 b is classified as a Super-Earth and was discovered by transit in 2023. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness. Kepler-1988 b has an orbital period of 11.5 days, the time it takes to complete one orbit. Its radius is 1.53 Earth radii, larger than Earth's.
