YZ Cet b
YZ Cet b
YZ Cet b is an exoplanet orbiting the star YZ Cet, located about 11.7 light-years ( 3.6 pc) away from Solar System. Its discovery was publicly announced on 2017.
The host star YZ Cet has apparent magnitude of 12.1, with absolute magnitude of 14.3. It is 0.1 times more massive and 0.2 times bigger compared with our Sun. The surface temperature is 3056 with its spectral types of M4.5
In this planetary system, the extrasolar planet YZ Cet b orbits around the star YZ Cet every 2.0 days with its orbital distance of 0.02 AU ( 2444429.2 km)
