description HIP 14810 d Overview
HIP 14810 d is the outer confirmed planet in the HIP 14810 system, orbiting a star broadly similar to the Sun. It was identified through radial-velocity measurements as part of a three-planet system announced in the late 2000s. Unlike the system’s inner planets, it has a substantially longer orbit and a mass in the giant-planet range rather than the super-Earth range. The system is used to study how multiple planets form and remain dynamically arranged around one star.
help HIP 14810 d FAQ
How was HIP 14810 d discovered?
It was identified through radial-velocity measurements of the star HIP 14810. Those measurements showed the gravitational tug of a third planet in a system with three known planets.
Where is HIP 14810 d in its planetary system?
It is the outer confirmed planet in the HIP 14810 system. The inner planets orbit closer to the star, while HIP 14810 d follows the wider orbit.
What kind of star does HIP 14810 d orbit?
It orbits HIP 14810, a star broadly similar to the Sun. The planet is known from measurements of the star's motion, not from a direct image.
Was HIP 14810 d found by observing a transit?
The planet was identified through radial-velocity measurements. That method detects the star's back-and-forth motion caused by an orbiting planet, rather than requiring the planet to pass in front of the star.
