Star

The star is cooler, more luminous, similar mass, and larger than our Sun. This star is 22% older than our Sun and with metallicity nearly doubled with the Sun, based on its abundance of iron.

Planetary system

On June 13 2002[6], a 2.1 MJ planet HD 73526 b was announced orbiting HD 73526 in an orbit just a little smaller than that of Venus' orbit around the Sun.[5] This planet receives insolation 3.65 times that of Earth or 1.89 times that of Venus. This was a single planet system until 2006 when a 2.3 MJ second planet HD 73526 c was discovered. This planet forms a 2:1 orbital resonance with planet b.[3] Although these are minimum masses as the inclinations of these planets are unknown, orbital stability analysis indicated that orbital inclinations of both planets are likely to be near 90°, making the minimum masses very close to the true masses of the planets.[7]
