HD 30177 is a single star with a pair of orbiting exoplanets in the southern constellation Dorado. Based on parallax measurements, it is located at a distance of 181 light years from the Sun. It has an absolute magnitude of 4.72,[3] but at that distance the star is too faint to be viewed by the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 8.41.[1] The star is drifting further away with a radial velocity of 62.7 km/s.[5]

The spectrum of HD 30177 matches a late G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G8V.[4] It is a yellow dwarf with a mass and radius similar to the Sun that is fusing hydrogen in its core. The chromosphere shows a negligible level of magnetic activity.[3] The abundance of iron, an indicator of the star's metallicity, is more than double the Sun's. It is radiating a similar luminosity to the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,607 K.[6]

A 2024 multiplicity survey, using astrometry from the Gaia spacecraft, identified a proper motion companion to HD 30177. This co-moving companion is a red dwarf star, around 10% the mass of the Sun, is located at 780" from HD 30177 with a position angle of 188°. The angular distance translates to an observed separation of 43,300 astronomical units.[10]

Planetary system

The Anglo-Australian Planet Search team announced the discovery of HD 30177 b, which has a minimum mass 8 times that of Jupiter, on June 13, 2002. The scientific paper describing the discovery was published in The Astrophysical Journal in 2003.[11][3] A second massive gas giant planet was later discovered in an approximately 32 year orbit.[12] In 2022, the inclination and estimated mass of both planets were measured via astrometry.[13]
