HD 13189

Orange-hued star in the constellation Taurus

HD 13189 is a star with an orbiting companion in the northern constellation of Triangulum constellation. With an apparent visual magnitude of +7.57,[2] it is too faint to be visible to the normal human eye. The distance to this system is approximately 1,590 light years based on parallax measurements, and it is drifting further away with a radial velocity of 25.39 km/s.[5] In 2005, a planetary companion or brown dwarf was announced in orbit around this star.[2]

It has a spectral classification of K1II-III, making it a giant star that has evolved away from the main sequence after exhausting the hydrogen at its core. The mass is 1.2 times the Sun's, while measurements of the star's radius give estimates of 38 R☉. The atmosphere of the star displays short period radial velocity variations with a primary period of 4.89 days. This behavior is typical for giant K-type stars such as this and it is not the result of a close-orbit planetary companion.[11]

HD 13189 b is an exoplanet or brown dwarf with mass ranges from 8 to 20 Jupiter mass. This object is located at a mean distance of 277 Gm (1.85 AU) from the star, taking 472 days to make one elliptical orbit.

This object was discovered in Tautenburg, Germany in 2005.[12]
