HD 190647 is a yellow-hued star with an exoplanetary companion, located in the southern constellation of Sagittarius. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 7.78, [2] making this an 8th magnitude star that is much too faint to be readily visible to the naked eye. The star is located at a distance of 178 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −40 km/s. [1] It is also called HIP 99115.
The stellar classification of this star is G5V, [3] matching a G-type main-sequence star. However, the low gravity and high luminosity of this star may indicate it is slightly evolved. It is chrompsherically inactive with a slow rotation, [4] having a projected rotational velocity of 1.6 km/s. [6] The star's metallicity is high, with nearly 1.5 times the abundance of iron compared to the Sun. [4]
In 2007, a Jovian planet was found to be orbiting the star. It was detected using the radial velocity method with the HARPS spectrograph in Chile. The object is orbiting at a distance of 2.0 AU from the host star with a period of 2.84 years and an eccentricity (ovalness) of 0.18. As the inclination of the orbital plane is unknown, only a lower bound on the planetary mass can be made. It has a minimum mass 1.9 times the mass of Jupiter. [4]
