Star in the constellation Virgo
HD 114783 is a star with two exoplanetary companions in the equatorial constellation of Virgo . With an apparent visual magnitude of 7.56[ 2] it is too faint to be visible with the unaided eye, but is an easy target for binoculars . Based on parallax measurements, it is located at a distance of 68.6 light-years (21.0 parsecs ) from the Sun , but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −12 km/s.[ 1]
This is an orange-hued K-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of K1V.[ 3] It is roughly 2.5[ 5] billion years old and is chromospherically inactive [ 4] with a low projected rotational velocity of 1.9 km/s.[ 5] The star has 88% of the mass and 81% of the radius of the Sun.[ 5] It is radiating 42%[ 6] of the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,114 K.[ 5]
In 2001, the California and Carnegie Planet Search team found an exoplanet , HD 114783 b, orbiting the star using the radial velocity method. The discovery was made with the Keck Telescope .[ 4] A second companion, HD 114783 c, was discovered in 2016,[ 7] and in 2023 its inclination and true mass were measured via astrometry .[ 8]
