About this world

HD 213519 b is a sub-Neptune orbiting HD 213519, a yellow, Sun-like star 134 light-years from Earth. It is about 3 times the size of Earth (its size estimated from its mass), with at least 9.2 Earth masses (a minimum, measured by radial velocity). It completes an orbit every 11.1 days at 0.099 AU from its star, closer than Mercury is to the Sun, on a strongly elongated orbit (e = 0.41).

Its equilibrium temperature is about 931 K (658 °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 2022 by radial velocity with Multiple Observatories. The star wobbles toward and away from us, Doppler-shifting its spectrum.
