HD 190228 is a star around 200 light years (approx. 62  parsecs ) away from the Sun with an apparent visual magnitude of 7.3 mag in the constellation Vulpecula . The star is a sub-giant of the spectral class G and is over 10 billion years old. It is circled by a substellar companion called HD 190228 b (or HD 190228 B ), which is likely to be a brown dwarf (or possibly a low-mass star).

companion

The discovery of the companion of HD 190228 was made using the radial velocity method and was published in 2000. Its determined low minimum mass of 5 Jupiter made it an exoplanet candidate. With the determination of the orbit inclination of about 4 °, however, it was shown that the mass of the companion is significantly higher and is around (49 ± 15) Jupiter's masses. The orbital period of the companion is a little over 1100 days, its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.5.
