KELT-6b is an exoplanet orbiting the F-type subgiant KELT-6 approximately 791 light years away in the northern constellation Coma Berenices. It was discovered in 2013 using the transit method, and was announced in 2014.

Discovery

[edit]

In 2014, the planet's parameters were observed. The paper states that KELT-6 has just entered the subgiant phase, and is no longer on the main sequence. In 2015, an additional planet, c, was discovered using the radial velocity method.[4]

Properties

[edit]

KELT-6b is a hot Saturn with 44.2% Jupiter's mass, but has been bloated to 1.3 times Jupiter's radius. Its density is half of Saturn's, and it has an equilibrium temperature of 1,313 K, but a hotter dayside temperature of 1,531 K.[5]
