HD 114762 is a triple star system[4][5] approximately 126 light-years (38.6 pc) away in the constellation Coma Berenices. It consists of a yellow-white F-type main-sequence star (HD 114762 A) and two red or brown dwarf companions (HD 114762 Ab & HD 114762 B) approximately 0.36 & 130 AU distant.[4][5] Both are low-metal subdwarfs. Planets around such metal-poor stars are rare (three known cases are HD 22781, HD 111232, and HD 181720).[6] A telescope or strong binoculars are needed to view the primary. HD 114762 had been used by scientists as a "standard star", one whose radial velocity is well established, but with the discovery of the spectroscopic companion HD 114762 Ab its usefulness as a standard has been called into question.[7]

Spectroscopic companion

In 1989, a companion object, HD 114762 Ab, was found orbiting HD 114762 A by Latham, et al., using Doppler spectroscopy,[8] but its existence was not confirmed until 1991 by Cochran, et al.[9] It has a minimum mass of 10.69 M_J, and thus was originally thought to be a massive exoplanet; however, in 2019, its inclination was determined by Gaia astrometry, giving it a true mass of 107 M_J. This makes it a red dwarf star, or a massive brown dwarf.[5] A 2020 study provided further confirmation of this, and revised the mass updwards to 147 M_J.[10] Its orbital distance and revolution is similar to that of Mercury, though it has twice the eccentricity.[9]
