HIP 107773 is a star located 344 light years from Earth in the southern constellation Indus.[2][note 1] It is classified as a horizontal branch K-type giant star,[2][3] having a spectral type K0III[1] and a radius of 11.6 R.[5] With an apparent magnitude of 5.6, the star can be faintly seen with the naked eye.[1] It has an exoplanet, HIP 107773 b, a gas giant orbiting it at a distance of 0.72 astronomical units (108,000,000 km),[6] about the same distance from Venus to the Sun.[lower-alpha 1]

Characteristics

HIP 107773 is a giant star, having a spectral type K0III,[1] where K0 means it is a K-type star and III (luminosity class) means it is a giant star. The star is in the horizontal branch phase of evolution.[3][2] HIP 107773 has a radius equivalent to 11.6 solar radii, and a mass equivalent to about 2.4 solar masses.[3] It is cooler than the Sun, having an effective temperature of 4,945 K (4,672 °C).[3][lower-alpha 2] Given the mass and the evolutionary stage of the star, its age is estimated to be at least about one billion years.[2]

Planetary system

HIP 107773 has an exoplanet, HIP 107773 b, discovered in 2015 using the radial velocity method.[6][3] The planet is classified as a gas giant, having a minimum mass of 2 ||J}}}}}}[3] and an estimated radius of 1.19 |♃|J}}}}}}.[6] It orbits its star at a distance of 0.72 astronomical units (108,000,000 km), about the same distance as Venus is from the Sun,[lower-alpha 1] and completes one orbit every 144 days (0.39 years).[3] Its orbit is almost circular, with an eccentricity of just 0.09.[3]

With a mass of 2.4 M, the star HIP 107773 is one of the most massive stars with a close-in planet.[3][9]
