      Description The star HD 80606 (also known as Struve 1341 B) is part of a binary star system with a separation of 1200 astronomical units. It hosts an extrasolar planet on a highly elliptical orbit. Because of the high eccentricity the temperature of the planet's surface can rise from 800K to 1500K in just 6 hours.

      Planet sizes

      The following plot shows the approximate sizes of the planets in this system The Solar System planets are shown as a comparison. Note that unless the radius has been determined through a transit observation, this is only an approximation (see Lissauer et al. 2011b).

      Habitable zone

      The following plot shows the approximate location of the planets in this system with respect to the habitable zone (green) and the size of the star (red). This is only an estimate, using the star's spectral type and mass. Note that if no green band is shown in the plot, then the planet's orbit is far outside the habitable zone. The equations of Selsis, Kasting et al are used to draw the inner and outer boundaries.
