HD 43691 b is a massive jovian planet located approximately 280 light-years away in the constellation of Auriga. Because the inclination is unknown, only the minimum mass is known. The planet orbits close to the star, closer than Mercury to the Sun.
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 132406 b is a long-period, massive gas giant exoplanet orbiting the Sun-like star HD 132406. HD 132406 b has a minimum mass 5.61 times the mass of Jupiter. The orbital distance from the star is almost twice that of from Earth to the Sun. The orbital period is 2.7 years.
HD 43691 is a G-type star with magnitude +8.03 located approximately 280 light-years away in the constellation Auriga. This yellow star is about to stop thermonuclear hydrogen-fusion in its core and eventually expand to become a red giant.
HD 132406 is a star in the northern constellation of Boötes. With an apparent visual magnitude of 8.45, it is invisible to the naked eye. The distance to this star is 230 light-years based on parallax, but it is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −37.8 km/s. The star has an absolute magnitude of 4.30. It has one confirmed exoplanet companion.
HD 5319 is an 8th magnitude star approximately 319 light years away in the constellation Cetus. It is a subgiant star of spectral type K3, having run out of hydrogen in its core. When it was main-sequence, the spectral type was early F or late A.
HD 73256 is a variable star in the southern constellation of Pyxis. It has the variable star designation CS Pyxidis. With a baseline apparent visual magnitude of 8.08, it requires binoculars or a small telescope to view. The star is located at a distance of 120 light years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +30 km/s.
HD 37605 is a star in the equatorial constellation of Orion. It is orange in hue but is too faint to be visible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 8.67. Parallax measurements yield a distance estimate of 153 light years from the Sun. It has a high proper motion and is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −22 km/s.
HD 24040 is a metal-rich G-type star located approximately 152 light-years away in the constellation of Taurus. In 2006 a long-period planet was discovered.
HD 5319 b is a gas giant exoplanet discovered in 2007 in the constellation of Cetus. This planet has a minimum mass nearly two times that of Jupiter. The planet has an almost circular orbit, with an eccentricity of only 0.02 and a period of 641 days. An additional planet in the system was discovered in 2015 and may be in a 4:3 mean motion resonance with planet b.
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 33283 b is an exoplanet orbiting around HD 33283. The mass of the planet is about 1/3 that of Jupiter or about the same as Saturn. However, the planet orbits very close to the star, taking only 18 days to complete its orbit with average speed of 86.5 km/s (311400 km/h). Despite this, its orbit is eccentric, bringing it as close as 0.075 AU to the star and as far away as 0.215 AU.
HD 179949 b, formally named Mastika, is an extrasolar planet discovered by the Anglo-Australian Planet Search at the Anglo-Australian Observatory, which orbits the star HD 179949. The planet is a so-called "hot Jupiter", a Jupiter-mass planet orbiting very close to its parent star. In this case, orbital distance is almost one-tenth that of Mercury from the Sun. One orbital revolution lasts only about 3 days.
HD 16760 is a binary star system approximately 227 light-years away in the constellation Perseus. The primary star HD 16760 is a G-type main sequence star similar to the Sun. The secondary, HIP 12635 is 1.521 magnitudes fainter and located at a separation of 14.6 arcseconds from the primary, corresponding to a physical separation of at least 660 AU. Announced in July 2009, HD 16760 has been confirmed to have a red dwarf orbiting it, formerly thought to be a brown dwarf or exoplanet.
HD 179079 b is an extrasolar planet which orbits the G-type subgiant star HD 179079, located approximately 228 light years away in the constellation Aquila. This planet has mass only 1/12 that of Jupiter or 1.5 times Neptune. The planet orbits very close to the star, at a distance of 0.11 AU. This planet takes two weeks to revolve around the star. This planet was discovered using the Keck telescopes on August 12, 2009.
HD 179079 is a star with an exoplanetary companion in the equatorial constellation of Aquila. It has an apparent visual magnitude of approximately 7.96, making it too faint to be readily visible to the naked eye. The distance to this star can be determine using parallax measurements, which yields an estimate of approximately 228 light years. It is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +20 km/s.
HD 9446 is a star located about 164 light-years away in the constellation of Triangulum, near the southwestern constellation border with Pisces. This object can be viewed with binoculars or a telescope, but it is too faint to be seen with the naked eye at its apparent visual magnitude of 8.35. It is drifting further away from the Sun with a radial velocity of +21 km/s.
HD 113337 is the primary component of binary star system LDS 2662, about 118 light-years away from Earth. The primary main-sequence star belongs to the spectral class of F6. The star system is extremely young, and it is slightly enriched in heavy elements, with an abundance of such elements at about 115% that of the Sun.
HD 175289 is a binary star system. Its primary star, also known as Kepler-410A, is a F-type subgiant star, orbited by the orange dwarf star Kepler-410B on a wide orbit. The companion star was discovered in 2012.
HD 106315, also known as K2-109, is a F-type main-sequence star about 340 light-years away. The star is relatively metal-poor, having 60% of solar concentration of iron.
