HD 86081 is a yellow-hued
light years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +31 km/s.[2]
Characteristics
The
Planetary system
Monitoring of this star for radial velocity variations began in November 2005 and the first companion was discovered on April 17, 2006.[8] This hot Jupiter is orbiting just 5,180,000 km from the host star and has an orbital period of 2.1 days, one of the shortest periods ever discovered by this technique.[4] The separation of this exoplant is sufficiently low that it may have sped up the star's rotation through tidal interaction.[9] HD 86081 shows no evidence of planetary transits in spite of a 17.6% transit probability.[8] There is a linear trend in the star's radial velocity measurements that may be an indicator of additional unseen companions.[4]
