HD 13189 is a giant star belonging to the spectral class K2. It has an apparent magnitude of 7.57 mag. The mass of HD 13189 is approximately two to seven solar masses.
In 2005, astronomers at the Friedrich Schiller University Jena published the discovery they made at the Thuringian State Observatory of an object orbiting this star and which could be a brown dwarf or an exoplanet .
companion
The companion of HD 13189 was detected by a research group led by Professor Artie Hatzes , director of the Thuringian State Observatory, by observing the periodic fluctuations in the radial speed of the central star. The Thuringian findings were later confirmed by the McDonald Observatory in Texas . The companion is at least 8 to 20 times more massive than the planet Jupiter , the largest planet in the solar system , and takes around 472 days to complete one orbit. The major semi-axis of the orbit is approximately 2 astronomical units .
