Composition
- Bulk composition
- A cold gas/ice giant of minimum mass ~108 Earth (~0.34 Jupiter) on a wide orbit; never imaged.
- Cloud appearance
- Appearance based on ESO/M. Kornmesser's artist's concept. No spacecraft has imaged this world, so its real appearance is unknown — The banded clouds shown are a representation of its class, shown only in Vision mode; Realism shows a plain spectral colour.
Radiation & temperature
- Insolation
- 0.0274 S⊕ · 3% of the sunlight Earth receives
- Equilibrium temperature
- 118 K (-155 °C)
Discovery & history
- Method
- Radial-velocity detection (stellar wobble)
- Name
- Designated 'h' under the IAU convention that letters a star's planets 'b', 'c', 'd'... in the order they are discovered (the star itself is the unwritten 'a').
The long-period giant of the system, announced in 2015 from a slow radial-velocity trend.
