HD 210702 is a star with an orbiting exoplanet in the northern constellation of Pegasus.[1] It has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.93,[1] which is bright enough that the star is dimly visible to the naked eye. The distance to HD 210702 is 177 light years based on parallax measurements, and it is drifting further away with a radial velocity of 18.5 km/s.[5] It is a probable member of the Ursa Major moving group, an association of co-moving stars.[4]

Although a stellar classification of K1 III[4] suggests this is an evolved giant star, it is more likely to be a subgiant star currently at the base of the red giant branch.[3] Currently 3[6] billion years old, HD 210702 spent its main-sequence life as an A-type star. Consistent with its evolutionary status, it has little or no magnetic activity in its chromosphere.[9] The star has 1.5[6] times the mass of the Sun and has expanded to 4.9 times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 12.9 times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,946 K.[6]

Planetary system

The star shows variability in its radial velocity consistent with an exoplanetary companion in a Keplerian orbit,[9] and one was duly discovered in April 2007, from observations at Lick and Keck Observatories in Mount Hamilton (California) and Mauna Kea (Hawai'i), United States. As the inclination of the orbital plane is unknown, only a lower bound on the mass of this object can be estimated. It has at least 1.8 times the mass of Jupiter.[10]
