HD 107148 is a wide

The brighter primary member, designated component A, has a

magnetic activity cycle with a period around 6 years.[9] It has 1.1 times the mass of the Sun and 1.15 times the Sun's radius. HD 107148 is radiating 1.34 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,789 K.[6]

In 2012, a comoving white dwarf stellar companion HD 107148 B was detected[10] at projected separation of 1,790 AU, and was confirmed in 2014. It is a 0.6 M remnant core of the former 1.8±0.2 M star with a cooling age of 2.1±0.3 Gyr. This was formerly the primary component of this system before it ejected much of its mass.[4]

Planetary system

In 2006, a discovery of Saturn-mass planet was announced.[11] Another Neptune-sized planet was discovered in 2021, together with significantly refined orbit of HD 107148 b.[9]

HD 107148 should not be confused with

extrasolar planet
discovered in 2000.
