HD 126614 Ab

Extrasolar planet which orbits the star HD 126614 in the constellation Virgo

HD 126614 Ab, or simply HD 126614 b, (also known as HIP 70623 b) is an extrasolar planet which orbits the primary K-type star HD 126614 A, located approximately 240 light years away[2] in the constellation Virgo. It was discovered on November 13, 2009. However, this planet has a highly eccentric orbit around its parent star. The planetary distance ranges from 0.94 AU to 3.61 AU. HD 126614 A also has the highest metallicity of any star hosting any exoplanets, at +0.56 dex.[3]

In 2022, the true mass and inclination of HD 126614 Ab were measured via astrometry.[1]
