It has an effective temperature of only around 3,050 kelvin, a luminosity of 0.15 per cent of that of the Sun, a measured radius of 14 per cent of the radius of the Sun2 and a mass of about 12 per cent of the mass of the Sun. Although Proxima is considered a moderately active star, its rotation period is about 83 days (ref. 3) and its quiescent activity levels and X-ray luminosity(4) are comparable to those of the Sun. Here we report observations that reveal the presence of a small planet with a minimum mass of about 1.3 Earth masses orbiting Proxima with a period of approximately 11.2 days at a semi-major-axis distance of around 0.05 astronomical units. Its equilibrium temperature is within the range where water could be liquid on its surface(5). | Descripción: | Anglada-Escude, Guillem et. al. | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nature19106 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/139322 | DOI: | 10.1038/nature19106 | ISSN: | 0028-0836 | E-ISSN: | 1476-4687 |
