kappa And b
kappa And b
kappa And b is an exoplanet orbiting the star kappa And, located about 163.1 light-years (50.0 pc) away from Solar System. Its discovery was publicly announced on 2013.
The host star kappa And has apparent magnitude of 4.1, with absolute magnitude of 0.6. It is 2.8 times more massive and 2.3 times bigger compared with our Sun. The surface temperature is 11361 with its spectral types of B9IV
In this planetary system, the extrasolar planet kappa And b orbits around the star kappa And every 215000.0 days with its orbital distance of 100.00 AU ( 14959787070.0 km)
(Projected orbit of kappa And b around its host star kappa And)
The Star kappa And 's habitable zone is located at the following distance
