HD 85628 (MASCARA-4) is a binary star system in the constellation of Carina. [5] The host star, HD 85628 A, is an A-type main-sequence star, the primary star of the system, with a hot Jupiter in orbit around it. The secondary star is HD 85628 B, a K-type main-sequence star. Little is known about it.

Nomenclature

This star system was first catalogued in the Henry Draper Catalog as HD 85628, its most common name. The Henry Draper Catalogue gave stars visible to the naked eye in suitable conditions a designation, indicating that this star can be seen with the naked eye. But in 2019, the Multi-site All-Sky Camera announced the discovery of the exoplanet HD 85628 Ab/MASCARA-4b around HD 85628 A. Thus, the primary star is sometimes catalogued as MASCARA-4.

Planetary system

In 2019, a hot Jupiter exoplanet was discovered by MASCARA using the transit method around HD 85628 A. [6]

IC 2391 is an open cluster in the constellation Vela consisting of hot, young, blueish stars, some of which binaries and one of which is a quadruple. Persian astronomer A. a.-R. al-Sufi first described it as "a nebulous star" in c. 964. It was re-found by Abbe Lacaille and cataloged as Lac II 5.

HD 181720 is star with an orbiting substellar companion in the southern constellation of Sagittarius. It is located at a distance of 196 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −45.4 km/s. The star has an absolute magnitude of 4.10, but at that distance it has an apparent visual magnitude of 7.84, which is too faint to be seen with the naked eye.

A survey in 2015 ruled out the existence of any stellar companions at projected distances from 49 to 345 astronomical units.

HD 152079 is a star with an orbiting exoplanet in the southern constellation of Ara. It is located at a distance of 287 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −21 km/s. At that distance the star is much too faint to be visible with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 9.18.

HD 166724 is a star in the southern constellation of Corona Australis. It is invisible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of +9.33. The star is located at a distance of 148 light-years from the Sun based on parallax, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −18 km/s. It is predicted to come as close as 97.0 light-years in around 1.2 million years from now. The star has an absolute magnitude of 6.20.
