About this world
TOI-2525 c is a gas giant orbiting TOI-2525, an orange dwarf (type K8V) 1.29 thousand light-years from Earth. It is about 0.9 times the size of Jupiter and holds 0.66 Jupiter masses. It completes an orbit every 49.3 days at 0.25 AU from its star, closer than Mercury is to the Sun.
Its equilibrium temperature is about 400 K (127 °C): too cold for liquid water on its surface. At its size it almost certainly keeps a deep envelope of hydrogen and helium. Its atmosphere has already been studied in one spectroscopic observation by the James Webb Space Telescope.
It was discovered in 2023 by transit with Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). A planet crosses its star and dims it by a tiny, periodic fraction. TOI-2525 has 2 known planets; the others are TOI-2525 b.
