Star in the constellation Lupus
HIP 70849 is a star with two non-stellar companions in the southern constellation Lupus . It is a 10th magnitude star, making it too faint to be visible to the naked eye.[ 2] The system is located at a distance of 78.7 light-years from the Sun based on parallax measurements.[ 1]
This is a K-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of K7Vk,[ 3] where the 'k' indicates interstellar absorption features in the spectrum . The star is magnetically active with a 10.1± 1.4 yr starspot cycle. It appears about 3.6 billion years old and the light emission shows a 41.2 day periodicity, which is likely the rotation period .[ 5] This star, which resembles a brighter red dwarf , is smaller and less massive than the Sun. It is radiating just 9%[ 5] of the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,103 K.[ 6]
In 2009, a gas giant planet was found in orbit around it.[ 8] Designated HIP 70849 b, it has 4.5 times the mass of Jupiter and takes more than 3000 days to orbit at a semimajor axis of 3.99 AU , with a high eccentricity.[ 9] There is also a T4.5 brown dwarf companion orbiting ~9000AU from HIP 70849.[ 10] [ 11]
