HD 192263 b is a gas giant planet with a mass about three quarters that of Jupiter mass. It orbits the star in a circular orbit completing one revolution in 24 days or so. It was discovered in 2000 by the Geneva Extrasolar Planet Search team.〔 In 2002 the existence of the planet was questioned by G. Henry: The star was observed to have photometric brightness variations that have same period and velocities as the planet. The signal could come from those variations instead of the planet orbiting the star or suggests that rotational modulation of the visibility of stellar surface activity is the source of the observed radial velocity variations.〔See, (【引用サイトリンク】 title= No Planet at All: Star Fools Astronomers, Who See Spots ) 〕 Finally, in 2003 the planet was confirmed; the planet is thought to be causing fluctuations in the system's magnetic field, causing visible activity.〔 Preliminary astrometry in 2001 set its inclination at 179.5°; but it is now thought to be inclined according to the star's ecliptic, edge-on to Earth. ==References== * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「HD 192263 b」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
