HD 222259 (DS Tucanae) is a binary star system in the constellation of Tucana. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 8.5,[6] and is a RS Canum Venaticorum variable.[7] The system is notable for being young as a member of the 45 Myr old Tucana-Horologium moving group[8] and for the primary star hosting the confirmed exoplanet DS Tucanae Ab, discovered by TESS.[9][6][10][11]

Stellar System

HD 222259 is a visual binary.[3] The binary consists of a G6V primary and a K3V secondary separated by 5".[12] Based on radial velocity measurements it was suggested that the secondary itself is a binary, but later studies could not find evidence for this claim.[6]

Physical properties

High levels of magnetic activity, a strong 6708Å lithium line, and the position on the color-magnitude diagram, slightly above the main sequence, strongly support a young age of the system.[10]

DS Tuc Ab is one of the few transiting planets with an age smaller than 100 Myrs. Other examples are K2-33b, V1298 Tauri b and AU Microscopium b. Of these systems DS Tuc is the brightest and it is a good target for atmospheric characterization with JWST. The planet is a super-Neptune or sub-Saturn.[6] The planet might be an inflated planet with an upper mass limit of 20 M.[10] DS Tuc Ab will be observed by ESA's CHEOPS mission to characterize the planet.[13]
