WASP-187 and Its Jupiter-Like Planet

WASP-187 is an F-type star located 1210 light-years away, with an age of 2.55 billion years. Its mass is 1.54 solar masses, its radius is 2.83 solar radii, and its temperature is 6150 K. The star's reported mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is hotter than the Sun's. One planet orbits this star.

WASP-187 b is a Jupiter-like planet discovered in 2020 by the transit method, in which a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint and causes a small dip in observed brightness. It has a mass of 254 Earth masses and a radius of 18.4 Earth radii, both larger than Earth's. Its mean density is 0.226 g/cm³, 0.0409 times Earth's. The planet completes an orbit every 5.15 days.
