HD 202206is abinary starsystem in the southernconstellationofCapricornus.With anapparent visual magnitudeof +8.1,[2]it is too faint to be visible to thenakedeye. It is located at a distance of 150light yearsfrom theSunbased onparallax,and is drifting further away with aradial velocityof +14.7 km/s.[5]

The primary component is aG-type main-sequence starwith astellar classificationof G6V,[3]indicating it is generating energy throughcorehydrogen fusion.It is an estimated three[2]billion years old and is spinning with aprojected rotational velocityof 2.3 km/s.[2]It is ametal-rich star – what astronomers term the abundance of elements of higher atomic number than helium – which may explain the star's unusually high luminosity for its class.[7]The star has a slightly greater mass and radius compared to the Sun.[2]


Companions

[edit]

In 2000, analysis ofradial velocitymeasurements of the star revealed the existence of abrown dwarfcompanion[8]with at least 17 times the mass ofJupiteraround the star in aneccentricorbit with a period of around 256days.[7]Even after the brown dwarf was accounted for, the star still showed a drift in the radial velocity measurements, suggesting another companion in a longer-period orbit. In 2004 after further observations, the parameters of a proposed companion was announced.[9]

Further observation of this system revised this picture in 2017, showing that the system instead consisted of a pair of co-orbiting stars being viewed nearly face-on, with the pair being orbited in turn by a Super-Jupiter designatedHD 202206 c.The secondary stellar companion, now designated component B rather than 'b', is ared dwarfstar with 8.9% of the mass of the Sun.[2]
