HD 39194
Star in the constellation Mensa
HD 39194 (Gliese 217.2; LHS 210 ) is a star located in the southern circumpolar constellation Mensa . It has an apparent magnitude of 8.07,[ 2] making it readily visible in binoculars but not to the naked eye . The object is relatively close at a distance of 86 light years [ 1] but is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 13.9 km/s .[ 6]
Characteristics
HD 39194 has a general stellar classification of K0 V,[ 3] indicating that it is a K-type main-sequence star . Houk & Cowley found a slightly warmer class of G8 V,[ 13] instead making it a G-type main-sequence star . Nevertheless, it has 71% the mass of the Sun [ 8] and an effective temperature of 5,205 K ,[ 11] giving an orange hue. It radius of 0.74 R ☉ [ 9] yields a luminosity only 38% that of the Sun .[ 10] HD 39194 is estimated to be 11.7 billion years old[ 8] and is extremely chromospherically inactive .[ 3] Despite being a planetary host, it has an iron abundance only 24% that of the Sun.[ 11] HD 39194's projected rotational velocity is similar to the Sun's, with the value being 2 km/s .[ 12]
Planetary system
Three planet candidates around this star were first reported in a 2011 preprint .[ 14] After 10 years of observations, a team of astronomers confirmed 3 super-Earths circling HD 39194 in eccentric orbits;[ 10] none of the planets are in the habitable zone . HD 39194 b and d have similar masses.
This star was selected as a potential candidate for future exoplanet imaging missions in 2015.[ 9]
