About this world
NGC 2682 YBP 1194 b is a gas giant orbiting NGC 2682 YBP 1194, a yellow, Sun-like star (type G5V) 2.85 thousand light-years from Earth. It is about 1.1 times the size of Jupiter (its size estimated from its mass), with at least 0.32 Jupiter masses (a minimum, measured by radial velocity). It completes an orbit every 6.96 days at 0.072 AU from its star, closer than Mercury is to the Sun, on a strongly elongated orbit (e = 0.3).
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 2014 by radial velocity with Multiple Observatories. The star wobbles toward and away from us, Doppler-shifting its spectrum.
