The survey in 2015 have ruled out the existence of any additional stellar companions at projected distances from 138 to 762 astronomical units.[6]

The star HD 181342 is named Belel. The name was selected in the NameExoWorlds campaign by Senegal, during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. Belel is a rare source of water in the north of Senegal.[7][8]

HD 181342 is a K-type red giant star.[3] It was formerly an A-type main-sequence star,[2] but at an age of 1.56 billion years it has swelled up to a size of 4.55 solar radii.[4] It is currently 1.78 times the mass of the Sun, 16.2 times as luminous, and its surface temperature is 4976 K.[4]

Planetary system

HD 181342 is known to have one planet, detected with Doppler spectroscopy.[2] The planet, HD 181342 b, orbits at a distance of 1.59 astronomical units (au), every 564 days (almost 2 years). Its mass is at least two and a half times that of Jupiter.[9]
