SIMBAD data

HD 19467 is a star with an orbiting brown dwarf companion in the equatorial constellation of Eridanus. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 6.97, [1] which is a challenge to view with the naked eye. The system is located at a distance of 104.5  light years based on parallax measurements, [2] and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of 7 km/s. [5] It has a high proper motion, traversing the celestial sphere at an angular rate of 0.258 arcsec yr−1. [11] Based on the motion and chemical abundances of this star it has been considered a likely member of the Wolf 630 group of co-moving stars, although its age estimate is inconsistent with that assignment. [12]

The spectrum of HD 19467 presents as a G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G3 V. [4] It has been identified as a solar twin based on the similarity of its physical properties to the Sun. [13] This is an older star, [6] with age estimates range from 5.4 [3] up to 10.1 billion years, [8] depending on the study. It is considered a thin disk star, which should theoretically limit the age to no more than 8 billion years. [6] The spin rate is correspondingly low with a rotation period of 29.5 days. [6] Based on the abundance of iron, the metallicity is lower than solar. [14] [6] The level of magnetic activity in the star's chromosphere as well as X-ray emission are at most below the equivalent level in the Sun. [3]

Brown dwarf

In 2014, a survey team announced the discovery of a brown dwarf in orbit around HD 19467. The presence of an low-mass companion was indicated via an acceleration trend in radial velocity time series data collected between 1996 and 2021. The object was then directly imaged using the NIRC-2 instrument at the Keck Observatory. Designated HD 19467 B, it was located at an angular separation of 1.6 from the host star. Astrometric observations taken over a 1.1 year period demonstrated that the object is clearly associated with HD 19467 A, having a similar parallax and proper motion. The radial velocity data indicated a minimum mass of 51.9+3.6
−4.3
  MJ
, with a brightness and colors matching a T-dwarf. [15]

The spectrum of this object was taken at the Palomar Observatory, finding a spectral type of T5.5±1. It was measured as having an effective temperature of 978 K and, like the host star, a sub-solar metallicity. [9] Orbital analysis was used to infer a mass of 65.4 MJ, which is near the substellar mass boundary. It has a highly eccentric orbit with period estimates ranging from 320 to 420 years, depending on the study. [3]
