SIMBAD data

HD 181342 is a star with an orbiting exoplanet in the constellation of Sagittarius. With an apparent magnitude of 7.55, [2] it cannot be seen with the naked eye. Parallax measurements made by Gaia spacecraft put the star at a distance of 394 light-years (121 parsecs) away. [1] It is drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of radial_v −0.8 km/s. [4]

The star HD 181342 is named Belel and the planetary companion is Dopere. The name was selected in the NameExoWorlds campaign by Senegal, during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. Belel is a rare source of water in the north of Senegal. Dopere is an expansive historical area in the north of Senegal where Belel was located. [6] [7]

HD 181342 is a K-type red giant star with a stellar classification of K0 III. [3] It was formerly an A-type main-sequence star, [2] but at an age of 1.56 billion years it has swelled up to a size of 4.55 solar radii. [4] It is currently 1.78 times the mass of the Sun, 16.2 times as luminous, and its effective temperature is 4,976 K. [4]

A survey in 2015 ruled out the existence of any additional stellar companions at projected distances from 138 to 762 astronomical units. [8]

Planetary system

HD 181342 is known to have one planet, detected with Doppler spectroscopy. [2] The planet, HD 181342 b, orbits at a distance of 1.59 astronomical units (au), every 564 days (almost 2 years). Its mass is at least two and a half times that of Jupiter. [9]

HD 130322 is a star with a close orbiting exoplanet in the constellation of Virgo. The distance to this system is 104 light years, as determined using parallax measurements. It is drifting closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of −12.4 km/s. With an apparent visual magnitude of 8.04, it is too dim to be visible to the naked eye; requiring binoculars or a small telescope to view.

HD 188015 is a yellow-hued star with an exoplanetary companion in the northern constellation of Vulpecula. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 8.24, making it an 8th magnitude star, and thus is too faint to be readily visible to the naked eye. The distance to this star can be estimated through parallax measurements, which yield a separation of 165.5 light years from the Sun.

HD 102195 is an orange-hued star in the zodiac constellation of Virgo with a confirmed exoplanet companion. With an apparent visual magnitude of 8.07, the star is too faint to be seen with the naked eye. The distance to HD 102195 can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of 34.06 mas, yielding 95.8 light years. It is moving further away from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of 1.85 km/s. This is a high proper motion star and a possible member of the η Cha stellar kinematic group.
