KELT-24 (HD 93148, MASCARA-3) is a single star in the constellation Ursa Major at a distance of approximately 316 light-years (about 96.8 parsecs) from Sun. The apparent magnitude of the star is +8.33m. The star's age is estimated to be about 1.6 billion years. [2] [3] [4] As an F-type main-sequence star, it is similar to the Sun, but slightly hotter and more luminous.

Nomenclature

This star was first catalogued in the Henry Draper Catalogue as HD 93148. 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 and the Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope announced the discovery of the exoplanet KELT-24b/MASCARA-3b around this star. Thus, it is most commonly known as KELT-24, although the star is sometimes catalogued as MASCARA-3.

Characteristics

KELT-24 is a yellow-white star with a spectral class of F5 or F7. Its mass is about 1.4 M☉, its radius is about 1.555 R☉, and its luminosity is about 3.466 L☉. Its effective temperature is about 6437 K.

Planetary system

In 2019, the discovery of the Hot Jupiter type planet KELT-24b/MASCARA-3b was announced by the Multi-site All-Sky CAmeRA and the Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope. TESS data confirmed that no additional companions are orbiting this star. [5] [6] Since this discovery, the system is now called KELT-24 or MASCARA-3.

WASP-47 is a star similar in size and brightness to the Sun about 870 light-years away in the constellation Aquarius. It lies within the Kepler K2 campaign field 3. It was first noticed to have a hot Jupiter exoplanet orbiting every 4 days in 2012 by the Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP) team. While it was thought to be a typical hot Jupiter system, three more planets were found in 2015: an outer gas giant within the habitable zone, a hot Neptune exterior to the hot Jupiter's orbit and a super-Earth interior to the hot Jupiter's orbit. WASP-47 is the only planetary system known to have both planets near the hot Jupiter and another planet much further out.

Based on parallax measurements from the Gaia spacecraft, the object is estimated to be approximately 1,350 light years away from the Solar System. It appears to be drifting closer to it, having a radial velocity of −0.53 km/s.

KELT-20, also known as MASCARA-2, is an A2 main sequence star in the constellation of Cygnus, about 447 light years away.

HD 85628 (MASCARA-4) is a binary star system in the constellation of Carina. 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.

HD 201585 is a star located in the equatorial constellation Equuleus. It has an apparent magnitude of 8.23, making it readily visible in small telescopes but not to the naked eye. Gaia DR3 parallax measurements imply a distance of 594 light-years and it is currently receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 14 km/s. At its current distance, HD 201585's brightness is diminished by three-tenths of a magnitudes due to interstellar extinction and it has an absolute magnitude of +1.81. HD 201585 is the star's Henry Draper Catalogue designation. It is also designated as MASCARA-1 meaning that it is the first star observed by the MASCARA exoplanet search program.
