HD 106906is abinary star[6]system in the southernconstellationofCrux.It is too faint to be visible to the naked eye, having a combinedapparent visual magnitudeof 7.80.[2]The distance to this system is approximately 337light yearsbased onparallax,and it is receding from the Sun with aradial velocityof +10 km/s.[2]It is a member of the Lower Centaurus–Crux group of theScorpius–Centaurus OB associationof co-moving stars.[4]

This is a double-linedspectroscopic binarysystem consisting of twoF-type main-sequence starswith similar masses and a matchingstellar classificationof F5 V.[6]Theirorbital periodis less than 100 days.[4]

Planetary system

[edit]
Edge-on disc of gas and dust present around the binary star systemHD 106906

A distant circumbinary planet—HD 106906 b—is orbiting the pair at aprojected separationof732±30AUwith a period of at least 3,000 years. An infrared excess around the binary is coming from a circumstellardebris diskthat is being viewed edge-on. This has a pronounced asymmetrical shape, extending 120 AU on the east side and out to 550 AU to the west.[4]Planetary orbit is inclined to the debris disk by 39+20
−15
degrees, and planet itself is visible nearly pole-on, having a largeaxial tilt.[7]
