HR 8832 ( HD 219134 , historical and Bradley 3077 ) is an orange main sequence star of spectral type K in the constellation Cassiopeia , of about 21 light-years from the sun away. The star has a planetary system with up to six exoplanets .
With an apparent brightness of approximately the 6th size , HR 8832 is also visible to the naked eye under good visibility conditions, with a moonless night sky and no light pollution . It is located east of the memorable sky W , which is formed by the main stars of the constellation Cassiopeia.
properties
HR 8832 is smaller and lower in mass than the sun and has about 80% of the solar mass or the solar radius . A variability of the star has been suggested in the past . The rotation period of HR 8832 is approximately 23 days.
Planetary system
The star near the Sun was examined for the presence of orbiting planets as early as the 1990s through precise measurements of the radial velocity . The investigations carried out at the time ruled out the existence of planets with more than 0.7 Jupiter masses within an orbital radius of less than 5 AU . HR 8832 was also one of the 100 most important target stars of the mission Terrestrial Planet Finder of NASA , but has been postponed several times and finally in 2011 deleted.
On July 30, 2015, an astronomical team around Fatemeh Motalebi published the discovery of four exoplanets around HR 8832 based on measurement data from the HARPS-N spectrograph at the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo on La Palma . A second team of astronomers headed by Steven S. Vogt published the discovery of six planets a little later, in September 2015, based on their own measurements with the HIRES spectrograph at the Keck Observatory in Hawaii and the Automated Planet Finder at the Lick Observatory . The names of the planets used by the two astronomical teams sometimes differ from one another.
In all cases, all planets were verified using the radial velocity method . However, the innermost planet, HD 219134 b , is passing directly in front of HR 8832 as it orbits its central star from Earth . It could therefore also be detected and confirmed with the Spitzer Space Telescope using the transit method . At the time of its discovery, HD 219134 b was the closest exoplanet to the Sun that can be observed in transit. It has about 1.6 times the radius of the earth and about 4.7 times the mass of the earth . Based on the known data on radius and minimum mass, the density of the planet could be estimated at about 5.89 cm 3 , whereby HD 219134 b can be classified as a rocky planet .
The next outer planet HD 219134 c was also recognized as a transit planet in 2017. It has approximately 1.5 times the Earth's radius and a little less than 4.4 times the Earth's mass. Like HD 219134 b, it is very likely also a rocky planet.
The two following planets HD 219134 f and d are more massive and each have at least 7.3 and 16.1 times the mass of the earth. They too orbit very closely around their star. There are indications of two other planets further away. The outermost planet HD 219134 h has about 20% of the mass of the planet Jupiter in the solar system .
