BD-07 436, also known as WASP-77 since 2012,[7] is a binary star system about 344 light-years away. The star's components appears to have a different age, with the secondary older than 9 billion years, while the primary's age is 5 billion years.[2] The BD-07 436 system's concentration of heavy elements is similar to the Sun. Its stars display moderate chromospheric activity, including x-ray flares.[2]

The primary is a G-type main-sequence star, BD-07 436A (WASP-77A). The star is rotating rapidly, being spun up by the tides raised by the giant planet WASP-77Ab on its close orbit.[6] The secondary is a K-type main-sequence star BD-07 436B orbiting at a distance of 461+200−140 AU.[4]

Planetary system

In 2012 a transiting hot Jupiter planet b was detected on a very tight, circular orbit.[7] The planet may have an extended gaseous envelope and is losing mass.[2] Its equilibrium temperature is 1715+26−25 K,[5]the nightside temperature measured in 2019 is 1786±84 K,[8] and dayside planetary temperature measured in 2020 is 1842+34−33 K.[9]

Water vapour was detected on the planetary dayside of WASP-77Ab, indicating C/O ratio similar to solar or even lower.[10]
