'''82 G. Eridani''' ('''HD 20794''', '''Gliese 139''', '''e Eridani''') is a [[star]] {{convert|19.7|ly|pc|lk=on|abbr=off}} away from Earth in the constellation [[Eridanus (constellation)|Eridanus]]. It is a [[main sequence|main-sequence]] star with a [[stellar classification]] of G6&nbsp;V, and it hosts a system of three confirmed planets and a dust disk.

==Observation==
In the southern-sky catalog ''Uranometria Argentina'', 82 G. Eridani (often abbreviated to 82 Eridani)<ref name="xref" /> is the 82nd star listed in the constellation Eridanus.<ref name="ua1879" /> The Argentina catalog, compiled by the 19th-century astronomer [[Benjamin Gould]], is a southern celestial hemisphere analog of the more famous [[Flamsteed designation|Flamsteed catalog]], and uses a similar numbering scheme.

==Properties==
82 G. Eridani is slightly smaller and less massive than the Sun, at around 80% of the Sun's mass and 90% of the radius. It has a luminosity 30% fainter than the Sun's.<ref name="Nari2025"/> [[Astronomical spectroscopy|Spectroscopically]], it is classified as G6V,<ref name="perkins" /> compared to G2V for the Sun, and is among the [[List of nearest stars by spectral type#List of nearest G-type stars|nearest solar-type stars]]. The [[projected rotational velocity]] rate (''v'' sin ''i'') is smaller than 2&nbsp;km/s, compatible with a slow-rotating or pole-on star relative to Earth. Such observation would also match the lack of a reliable rotational period detection and the absence of any magnetic cycle.<ref name="Cretignier2023" />

It is a high-velocity star—it is moving quickly compared to the average—and hence is probably a member of [[Population II]], generally older stars whose motions take them well outside the plane of the [[Milky Way]]. Like many other Population II stars, 82 G. Eridani is somewhat metal-deficient (though much less deficient than many), and is older than the Sun.<ref name="aaa29" /> It has a relatively high orbital eccentricity of 0.42 about the galaxy, ranging between 3.52 and 8.41 kiloparsecs from the core.<ref name="aaa501_3_941" /> Its age is estimated at 5.76 billion years, based on its [[chromosphere|chromospheric]] activity indicator,<ref name=aaa534/> but other estimates suggest ages close or higher to the [[age of the Universe]].<ref name=Bernkopf/><ref name="aaa501_3_941" />

This star is located in a region of low-density [[interstellar matter]] (ISM), so it is believed to have a large [[Heliosphere|astropause]] that subtends an angle of 6″ across the sky. Relative to the Sun, this star is moving at a [[Space velocity (astronomy)|space velocity]] of 101&nbsp;km/s, with the [[Heliosphere|bow shock]] advancing at more than [[Mach number|Mach 3]] through the ISM.<ref name="apj107_1_198" />

== Planetary system ==

An infrared excess was discovered around the star by the [[Infrared Space Observatory]] at 60 μm,<ref name="tentativedisk" /> but was not later confirmed by the [[Spitzer Space Telescope]], in 2006. However, in 2012, a dust disk was found around the star,<ref name="disk" /> by the [[Herschel Space Observatory]]. While not well-constrained, if assumed to have a similar composition to [[61 Virginis]]' dust disk, it has a semi-major axis of 24 AU.<ref name="Kennedy_2015"/>

On August 17, 2011, European astronomers announced the discovery of three planets orbiting 82 G. Eridani. The mass range of these planets classifies them as [[super-Earth]]s; objects with only a few times the Earth's mass. These planets were discovered by precise measurements of the [[radial velocity]] of the star, with the planets revealing their presence by their gravitational displacement of the star during each orbit. None of the planets display a significant orbital eccentricity. However, their orbital periods are all 90 days or less, indicating that they are orbiting close to the host star. The [[equilibrium temperature]] for the most distant planet, based on an assumed [[Bond albedo]] of 0.3, would be about {{Convert|388|K|C}}; significantly above the boiling point of water.<ref name="aaa534"/>

At the time of planet c's detection, it exerted the lowest gravitational perturbation. There was also a similarity noted between its orbital period and the rotational period of the star. For these reasons the discovery team were somewhat more cautious regarding the verity of its candidate planet status than for the other two.<ref name="aaa534"/> (Indeed this 40-day planet is no longer believed to exist<ref name="Cretignier2023"/> and the "c" designation has been re-used.<ref name="Nari2025"/>)

Using the TERRA algorithm, developed by [[:es:Guillem Anglada-Escudé|Guillem Anglada-Escudé]] and [[R. Paul Butler]] in 2012, to describe better and filter out noise interference to extract more precise radial velocity measurements, a team of scientists led by Fabo Feng, in 2017, provided evidence for up to three more planets. One such candidate, of Neptune mass, 82 G. Eridani f, may orbit in the habitable zone of the star. The team also believe that, using these noise reduction techniques, they are able to better quantify the descriptions for the earlier 3 exoplanets, but only have weak evidence of 82 G. Eridani c.<ref name="Additionalcandidates"/>

A study in 2023 could only confirm planets b & d, and did not significantly detect the other planet candidates. In particular, the statistical significance of planet c would be expected to increase with additional data; the fact that this has not happened casts doubt on its existence. The 40-day radial velocity signal may instead be tied to the stellar rotation. The additional three candidates found in 2017 (e, f, g) could not be confirmed or refuted.<ref name="Laliotis2023" />{{rp|23,44}} Another 2023 study also only confirmed b & d out of the previous planet candidates (referring to them as b & c), but also detected a potential third planet farther from the star than any of the previous candidates, on an eccentric orbit partially within the [[habitable zone]].<ref name="Cretignier2023" /> A 2024 study confirmed this habitable zone planet.<ref name="Nari2025"/>

{{As of|2012}}, 82 G. Eridani is the nearest G-type main-sequence star that host confirmed exoplanets,<ref name=Bernkopf/> while the closer [[Alpha Centauri A]], [[Tau Ceti]] and [[Eta Cassiopeiae]] A have exoplanet candidates.

===Potential habitability of HD 20794 d===
{{main|82 G. Eridani d}}
On October 15, 2024, researchers at [[Oxford University]] announced that they had confirmed HD 20794 d, orbiting in the [[habitable zone]] of its star.<ref name="University of Oxford"/> In an article published in the journal ''[[Astronomy & Astrophysics]]'', scientists said an analysis of 20 years of observational data had found HD 20794 d could be a [[Terrestrial planet|rocky planet]] (though its composition is unknown and it could also be a [[mini-Neptune]]<ref name="Nari2025"/>{{rp|10}}) and should be "a high-priority target for future atmospheric characterization with direct imaging facilities."<ref name="Nari2025"/>

About six times the mass of Earth, the planet orbits "at the right distance from its star to sustain liquid water on its surface — a key ingredient for life as we know it."<ref name="tol"/> However, HD 20794 d's orbit is significantly [[Elliptic orbit|elliptical]], meaning it spends part of its year outside the habitable zone. Data for the research was gathered at the [[High Accuracy Radial Velocity Planet Searcher]] [[spectrograph]] at [[La Silla Observatory]] in [[Chile]].<ref name="tol" /> With the discovery, HD 20794 d became the 12th-closest [[List of potentially habitable exoplanets|potentially habitable planet]] to Earth.

==Planned observation missions==
82 G. Eridani (GJ 139) was picked as a Tier 1 target star for [[NASA]]'s proposed [[Space Interferometry Mission]] (SIM) mission to search for [[Terrestrial planet|terrestrial-sized]] or larger [[planet]]s,<ref name="mccarthy2005" /> which was cancelled in 2010.
