HD 4308 is a single[3] star with a planetary system in the southern constellation of Tucana.[10] It has a yellow hue and is a challenge to view with the naked eye even under good seeing conditions, having an apparent visual magnitude of 6.54.[3] This object is located at a distance of 72 light-years, as determined from parallax measurements. It is a population II star[3] and is considered to be a member of the thick disk.[11] The star is receding from the Sun with a radial velocity of +95 km/s.[7]

Stellar properties

This is a Sun-like G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G6VFe-0.9,[4] where the suffix notation indicates an underabundance of iron in the spectrum. The age of the star is poorly constrained, with estimated ranging from 1.6[8] billion years up to 10 billion.[9] It has 95% of the mass of the Sun but 104% of the Sun's radius. The star is radiating nearly the same luminosity as the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,714 K.[8]

Planetary system

In 2005, a low-mass exoplanet was found in orbit around this star using the radial velocity method with the HARPS spectrograph. It is following a circular orbit close to its host star with a period of just 15.6 days. Unusual for a star with planets, HD 4308 has a metallicity lower than that of the Sun.[12] Further radial velocity observations allowed two additional planets to be detected by 2025.[13]
