Gliese 832 B
Orbit
The planet takes 9.88 years to revolve around its star at an orbital distance of 3.5 AU; at the time of discovery, this was the longest-period Jupiter-like planet known orbiting a red dwarf. The brightness of the faint parent star at that distance corresponds to the brightness of the Sun from 80 AU (or 100 times brighter than a full Moon as seen from Earth).
Discovery
The planet was discovered at the Anglo-Australian Observatory on September 1, 2008. It would induce an astrometric perturbation on its star of at least 0.95 milliarcseconds and is thus a good candidate for being detected by astrometric observations. Despite its relatively large angular distance, direct imaging is problematic due to the star–planet contrast. Gliese 832 b was confirmed and its parameters updated by subsequent studies in 2011, 2014, and 2022. In 2023, an astrometric detection of the planet was announced, determining its inclination and revealing a true mass 80% the mass of Jupiter.
