HD 3765 is a single K-type main-sequence star in the constellation of Andromeda, near the Andromeda Galaxy in the sky. Its surface temperature is about 5076 K. [6] HD 3765 has an orange hue and is too faint to be seen with the naked eye, but can be seen with a small telescope. [8] It has an apparent visual magnitude of 7.34. Based upon parallax measurements, it is located 58.4 light-years from the Sun. The object is drifting towards the Sun with a radial velocity of −63.3 km/s. [2]

Planetary system

HD 3765 has one known exoplanet, discovered in 2021 by the radial velocity method. [9] Prior to this discovery, it had been used as a radial velocity standard star. [10] The planet, HD 3765 b, orbits with a period of 3.3 years at a distance of 2.1  AU , and is not in the habitable zone. It is a gas giant with a minimum mass of 0.173 Jupiter masses, [9] and a predicted radius 0.764 times that of Jupiter. [11]

During observations of the variable star EG Andromedae in 1971, a possible eclipse of HD 3765 (which was used as a comparison star) was observed. It was proposed that this might be due to a transiting planet the size of Jupiter. The presence of eclipses has not been confirmed, and the observation could have been due to intrinsic variability, or in error. [12]
