WASP-88 is a F-type main-sequence star. Its surface temperature is 6450±61 K. WASP-88 is similar to the Sun in its concentration of heavy elements, with a metallicity Fe/H index of 0.03±0.04,[5] and is younger at an age of 3.0±1.3 billion years.

A multiplicity survey did detect a candidate red dwarf companion to WASP-88 in 2020, with a 1.65% probability of it being an unrelated background star.[2]

Planetary system

In 2013, one planet, named WASP-88b, was discovered on a tight, circular orbit.[3] The planet is highly inflated, and may be an easy target for atmospheric characterization. Planetary equilibrium temperature is 1775 K.[7] The planetary atmosphere transmission spectrum is gray and featureless, probably indicating a large concentration of hazes.[8]
