About this world
HD 102195 b is a gas giant orbiting HD 102195, an orange dwarf (type K0V) 95.7 light-years from Earth. It is about 1.3 times the size of Jupiter (its size estimated from its mass), with at least 0.41 Jupiter masses (a minimum, measured by radial velocity). It completes an orbit every 4.11 days at 0.05 AU from its star, closer than Mercury is to the Sun.
Its equilibrium temperature is about 1,035 K (762 °C): far too hot for liquid water on its surface. At its size it almost certainly keeps a deep envelope of hydrogen and helium.
It was discovered in 2006 by radial velocity with Kitt Peak National Observatory. The star wobbles toward and away from us, Doppler-shifting its spectrum.
