HAT-P-15

HAT-P-15 is a G-type main-sequence star about 630 light-years away. The star is older than Sun yet has a concentration of heavy elements roughly 190% of solar abundance.[3] The star has no noticeable starspot activity.[5]

The spectroscopic survey in 2015 have failed to find any stellar companions to it,[6] yet imaging survey have identified a possibly two companion red dwarf stars at projected separations 1210 and 1370 AU, respectively.[7]

The star was named Berehynia in December 2019 by Ukrainian amateur astronomers.[8]

Planetary system

In 2010 a transiting hot superjovian planet b (named Tryzub in 2019[8]) was detected. It has an equilibrium temperature of 904±20 K.[2] An orbital simulation shows that any planets inward of the orbit of b would spiral inward and be destroyed within a time-span of less than a billion years.[9] The planetary orbit is well aligned with the equatorial plane of the star, misalignment equal to 13±6 degrees.[10]
