摘要

我们报告利用凌星系外行星巡天卫星(TESS)数据在 π\pi 绘架座(HD 39091)周围探测到一颗凌星行星。该太阳型宿主星异常明亮(V=5.7),且已知其拥有一颗处于高偏心率、5.7 年轨道上的类木行星。新发现的行星大小为 2.04±0.052.04\pm 0.05 RR_\oplus,轨道周期为 6.27 天。来自 HARPS 和 AAT/UCLES 档案的视向速度数据也显示出 6.27 天周期,确认了该行星的存在并得出质量测定值为 4.82±0.854.82\pm 0.85 MM_\oplus。该恒星的邻近性与亮度将有助于进一步研究,如大气光谱学、星震学、Rossiter–McLaughlin 效应、天体测量和直接成像。
