HD 92788 is a star in the equatorial constellation of Sextans. It has a yellow hue but is too dim to be visible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 7.31.[3] The star is located at a distance of 113 light years from the Sun based on parallax, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −4.5 km/s.[5] Two planets have been found in orbit around the star.[6]

This is a G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G6V.[4] It is estimated to be around eight billion years old and is spinning with a rotation period of 31.7 days.[7] The star has a similar mass to the Sun and is slightly larger in radius, with a high metallicity. It is radiating 1.25[2] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,722 K.[2]

Planetary system

[edit]

An extrasolar planet was discovered orbiting this star in 2001 by means of the radial velocity method. Designated component 'b', it is a Super-Jupiter with an orbital period of 0.89 years.[7] The star rotates at an inclination of 8+14
8
degrees relative to Earth.[9] It is probable that this planet shares that inclination,[10][11] but direct measurements of the orbital inclinations via astrometry are inconsistent with the stellar rotational inclinaion.[12]

A second planetary companion was announced in 2019. Designated 'c', it orbiting with a period of around 27 years and a semimajor axis of 9.4 AU.[13]
