    HD 156411 b (also known as HIP 84787 b and officialled named Sumajmajta) is an extrasolar planet which orbits the G-type main sequence star HD 156411, located approximately 179 light years away in the constellation Ara. This planet has at least three-fourths the mass of Jupiter and sbout 2.6 years years to orbit the star at a semimajor axis of 1.81 AU. [1] However, unlike most other known exoplanets, its eccentricity is not known, but it is typical that its inclination is not known. This planet was detected by HARPS on October 19, 2009, together with 29 other planets.

    The planet HD 156411 b is named Sumajmajta. The name was selected in the NameExoWorlds campaign by Peru, during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. Sumaj Majta was one half of the couple involved in a tragic love story Way to the Sun by Abraham Valdelomar. [2] [3]

    HD 83443 is an orange dwarf star approximately 134 light-years away in the constellation of Vela. As of 2000, at least one extrasolar planet has been confirmed to be orbiting the star. The star HD 83443 is named Kalausi. The name was selected in the NameExoWorlds campaign by Kenya, during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. The word Kalausi means a very strong whirling column of wind in the Dholuo language.

    HD 16175 is a 7th magnitude G-type star with temperature about 6000 K located 196 light-years away in the Andromeda constellation. This star is only visible through binoculars or better equipment; it is also 3.3 times more luminous, is 1.34 times more massive, and has a radius 1.66 times bigger than our local star.

    HD 16175 b is an exoplanet located approximately 195.7 light-years away in the constellation of Andromeda, orbiting the star HD 16175. This planet has a minimum mass 4.8 times that of Jupiter; the true mass was initially unknown since the inclination of the orbit was unknown. This planet orbits at about 2.2 astronomical units, taking 2.73 years to revolve around the star. The orbit of the planet is highly elliptical with an eccentricity of 0.64. In 2023, the inclination and true mass of HD 16175 b were determined via astrometry.

    HD 8574 b is an extrasolar planet discovered in 2001 by a team of European astronomers using Doppler spectroscopy as part of the ELODIE Planet Search Survey, and was published in a paper with five other planets. HD 8574 b is in the orbit of host star HD 8574. The planet is at most two times the mass of Jupiter, orbiting every 227 days at three quarters of the distance between the Earth and Sun. HD 8574 b has a very elliptical orbit, far more than that of Jupiter.

    HD 93083 b is an extrasolar planet orbiting the K-type subgiant star HD 93083 in Antlia constellation. It is probably much less massive than Jupiter, although only the minimum mass is known. The planet's mean distance from the star is about half that of Earth, and the orbit is slightly eccentric. This planet was discovered by the HARPS search team.

    HD 23079 b, formally named Guarani, is an exoplanet approximately 109 light years away in the constellation Reticulum. The planet has mass of at least 2.45 Jupiters, although only the minimum mass is known since inclination is unknown. The planet takes almost exactly two years to orbit the star at the average distance of 1.6 AU. The planet's orbital eccentricity is about the same as 109 Piscium b, HD 75898 b, and HD 69830 b at 0.102. The distance range from as close as 1.44 AU to as far away as 1.76 AU from the parent star.

    HD 205739 b is an extrasolar planet located approximately 350 light-years away.

    HD 153950 b, also known as Trimobe, is an extrasolar planet located approximately 162 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 20868 b is an extrasolar planet located approximately 156 light-years away in the constellation of Fornax, orbiting the 10th magnitude K-type subgiant star HD 20868. This planet has a minimum mass of 1.99 times more than Jupiter and orbits at a distance of 0.947 AU. This planet takes 380.85 days or 12.5 months to revolve around the star with an eccentricity of 0.75, one of the most eccentric of any known extrasolar planets. At periastron, the distance is 0.237 AU and at apastron, the distance is 1.66 AU.

    HD 173416 b, also named Wangshu, is an extrasolar planet located approximately 440 light years away in the constellation of Lyra, orbiting the 6th magnitude G-type giant star HD 173416. This is planet is at least 2.7 times the mass of Jupiter and was discovered on January 10, 2009 by Liu et al. HD 173416 b orbits at 1.16 AU from the star. However, despite the fact that the planet orbits 16% further from the star than Earth does from the Sun, it has orbital period of only 323.6 days, compared to 365.25 days for Earth. This inverse relationship is caused by the parent star having twice the mass of the Sun, which increases the strength of its gravitational field. This evidence implies that when this star was on the main sequence, it was an A-type star.

    HD 156411 is a 7th magnitude G-type main-sequence star located approximately 186 light years away in the southern constellation Ara. This star is larger, hotter, brighter, and more massive than the Sun. Its metal content is three-fourths as much as the Sun.
