HD 191806 has a stellar classification of G0V,[3] indicating that it is a G-type main sequence star. It has 110% the mass of the Sun[5] and a slightly enlarged radius of 1.48 R☉.[6] It radiates at 2.23 times the luminosity of the Sun[7] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,894 K,[5] giving a yellow hue. HD 191806 is estimated to be about 3 billion years old and has a metallicity nearly twice of the Sun's.[7] It spins with a projected rotational velocity of 3.3 km/s, which corresponds to a rotational period of 21 days.[7]
Planetary System
editObservations for exoplanets orbiting the star began in 2007 when it was selected by the N2K Consortium as a potential host due to its high metallicity.[9] After ten years of, a team of astronomers found a super Jupiter orbiting the star.[7] The star has a secular acceleration of >11 km/s, suggesting either the presence of a stellar companion or another planet.[7] In 2022, the inclination and true mass of HD 191806 b were measured via astrometry.[10]
