Summary
| Description |
English: This is WD 2105‑82 (LAWD 83) and its exoplanet candidate WD 2105‑82 b. The exoplanet candidate is the object in the crosshair at the lower right part to the white dwarf. It was discovered by Mullally et al. 2024 and is similar to our solar system giants. If confirmed, it would orbit the white dwarf at 34.62 au (earth-sun distances) in a 243 year orbit. During the main sequence of the star the orbit would have been closer to the star at 9.7 au. If confirmed WD 2105‑82 b would have a mass of around 1-2 Jupiter masses.
