HD 125612 d is an extrasolar planet which orbits the G-type main sequence star HD 125612, located approximately 172 light years away in the constellation Virgo. The discovery of this planet was announced by the HARPS team on October 19, 2009, together with 31 other planets, including HD 125612 c. [2]
In 2022, the true mass and inclination of HD 125612 d were measured via astrometry. [1]
HD 74156 is a yellow dwarf star in the constellation of Hydra, 187 light years from the Solar System. It is known to be orbited by two giant planets.
HD 28185 b is an extrasolar planet 128 light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Eridanus. The planet was discovered orbiting the Sun-like star HD 28185 in April 2001 as a part of the CORALIE survey for southern extrasolar planets, and its existence was independently confirmed by the Magellan Planet Search Survey in 2008. HD 28185 b orbits its sun in a circular orbit that is at the inner edge of its star's habitable zone.
Pi Mensae b, also known as HD 39091 b, is an extrasolar planet approximately 60 light-years away in the constellation of Mensa. The planet was announced orbiting the yellow main-sequence star Pi Mensae in October 2001.
HD 125612 is a binary star system with three exoplanetary companions in the equatorial constellation of Virgo. It is too dim to be visible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 8.31. The system is located at a distance of 188 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, but it is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −18 km/s.
HD 11506 is a star in the equatorial constellation of Cetus. It has a yellow hue and can be viewed with a small telescope but is too faint to be visible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 7.51. The distance to this object is 167 light years based on parallax, but it is drifting closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of −7.5 km/s. It has an absolute magnitude of 3.94.
HD 11506 b is an extrasolar planet that orbits the star HD 11506 167 light years away in the constellation of Cetus. This planet was discovered in 2007 by the N2K Consortium using the Keck telescope to detect the radial velocity variation of the star caused by the planet. A second planet, HD 11506 c, was discovered in 2015.
HD 8673 is a binary star in the northern constellation of Andromeda. It has an apparent magnitude and absolute magnitude of 6.34 and 3.56 respectively. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 26.2 mas, the system is located around 124.5 light years away. The system is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +19 km/s. A sub-stellar companion was detected in 2005; it could either be an exoplanet or a brown dwarf.
HD 111232 b is an extrasolar planet that orbits at almost 2 AU with a minimum mass of 6.8 times that of Jupiter. This planet was discovered in the La Silla Observatory by Michel Mayor using the CORALIE spectrograph on 30 June 2003, along with six other planets, including HD 41004 Ab, HD 65216 b, HD 169830 c, HD 216770 b, HD 10647 b, and HD 142415 b.
HD 125612 b is an extrasolar planet which orbits the G-type main sequence star HD 125612, located approximately 188 light years away in the constellation Virgo. This planet was detected using the doppler spectroscopy method and the discovery was first announced in a paper submitted to the arXiv preprint repository on April 10, 2007.

HD 73267 b is an extrasolar planet located approximately 164 light-years away. This planet was discovered on October 26, 2008 by Moutou et al. using the HARPS spectrograph on ESO's 3.6 meter telescope installed at La Silla Observatory in Atacama desert, Chile.

HD 183263 c is an exoplanet orbiting approximately 4.25 AU from the parent star HD 183263. This planet was announced by Wright et al. on December 8, 2008 using multiple observations in Lick and Keck Observatories earlier in that year. This planet was calculated to have minimum mass of 3.82 times more than Jupiter and takes 8.08 years to revolve around the star. The orbital distance varies from 3.17 to 5.33 AU, corresponding to the orbital eccentricity of 0.253.

HD 73267 is a star in the southern constellation Pyxis, near the western constellation border with Puppis. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 8.889 and can be viewed with a small telescope. The distance to HD 73267 is 164 light years based on parallax, and it is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +51.8 km/s. It has an absolute magnitude of 5.24.
HD 204313 is a star with two and possibly three exoplanetary companions in the southern constellation of Capricornus. With an apparent magnitude of 7.99, it is an eighth magnitude star that is too faint to be readily visible to the naked eye. The star is located at a distance of 157 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, but it is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −10 km/s.
HD 204313 b is an extrasolar planet which orbits the G-type main sequence star HD 204313, located approximately 155 light years away in the constellation Capricorn. This planet orbits the star at a distance of 3.082 astronomical units and takes 1931 days or 5.29 years to revolve around the star. It has a minimum mass four times that of Jupiter. However the radius is not known since this planet was not detected by the transit method or direct imaging. Instead, this planet was detected by the radial velocity method using the CORALIE Echelle spectrograph mounted on the 1.2 meter Euler Swiss Telescope located at La Silla Observatory in Atacama desert, Chile on August 11, 2009.
