HD 219077

HD 219077 is a faint, yellow-hued star in the southern constellation of Tucana. It has an apparent visual magnitude of +6.12,[2] which is near the lower limit on stars visible to the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 34.2337 mas as seen from Earth,[1] it lies 95 light years from the Sun. HD 219077 is moving closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of −31.01,[4] and has a relatively high proper motion.[6]

This is an ordinary G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G8 V.[3] It has 1.05 times the mass of the Sun and 1.91 times the Sun's radius. The star is older than the Sun with an estimated age of 8.9 billion years and is spinning slowly with rotation period of around 47 days. It is radiating 2.66 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,362 K.[2]

Planetary system

From 1998 to 2012, the star was placed under observation using the CORALIE echelle spectrograph at La Silla Observatory. In 2012, the presence of a long-period, wide-orbiting planet was deduced through radial velocity variations. This discovery was published in November of the same year. The estimated mass of the planet is at least ten times that of Jupiter.[2]

The discoverers noted that HD 219077 b is among the "three most eccentric planets with a period larger than 5 years" – along with HD 98649 b and HD 166724 b, also found with CORALIE. The reason for this eccentricity is unknown. They submitted HD 219077 b as a candidate for direct imaging, once it gets out to 11.0 AU at apoastron with 375 milliarcseconds of angular separation as seen from Earth.[2]

gollark: <@111608748027445248> I should have fixed it, try now.
gollark: Also, parser combinators are sorely needed.
gollark: What I need to do is make the escape bit handle `\uXXXX` sequences...
gollark: ```luafunction parseString(str) str = str:sub(2) local s = "" while str:sub(1,1) ~= "\"" do local next = str:sub(1,1) str = str:sub(2) assert(next ~= "\n", "Unclosed string") if next == "\\" then local escape = str:sub(1,1) str = str:sub(2) next = assert(decodeControls[next..escape], "Invalid escape character") end s = s .. next end return s, removeWhite(str:sub(2))end```
gollark: Okay, this is hand-rolled parsing code, I have no idea how it works.
