The surface temperature of a celestial body is estimated at 580 degrees Celsius.
Astronomers from the US, Germany and France have discovered exoplanet HD 131399Ab orbiting three suns. A study published in the journal Science, briefly about it, reports the University of Arizona in Tucson (USA).
Planet HD 131399Ab located at a distance of 340 light-years from Earth in the constellation Centaurus. The age of a celestial body is estimated at 16 million years. According to this indicator, the exoplanet is one of the youngest of the famous scientists.
The surface temperature of a celestial body is estimated at 580 degrees Celsius. HD 131399Ab about four times heavier than Jupiter and, as scientists believe, deleted from HD 131399A at a distance of 60 to 100 astronomical units. This configuration, according to scientists, allows to ensure the stability of the system.
A full rotation around the center of mass of the system HD 131399 planet makes for 1.1 thousand earth years. About half of this time with the HD 131399Ab it is possible to observe all three stars. Exoplanet located close to the largest luminaries of the system (HD 131399A) weighing 80 percent more solar. The other two stars rotate around each other and the common center of mass of the system.
Exoplanet HD 131399Ab discovered during observations using the Very large telescope of the European southern Observatory, located in Chile, and investigated in detail the system SPHERE (Spectro-Polarimetric High-contrast Exoplanet REsearch).
