Kepler-5b is one of the first five planets discovered by NASA's Kepler spacecraft. It is a hot Jupiter that orbits a subgiant star that is more massive, larger, and more diffuse than the Sun is.

2024年10月24日 · Kepler-5 b is a gas giant exoplanet that orbits a F-type star. Its mass is 2.111 Jupiters, it takes 3.5 days to complete one orbit of its star, and is 0.0538 AU from its star. Its discovery was announced in 2009.

Kepler-5b is the second largest, highlighted in blue. Kepler-5b is 2.111 M J and 1.426 R J. It is, thus, more than twice the mass of Jupiter, and slightly less than three halves of Jupiter's radius. Kepler-5b orbits its star every 3.5485 days, lying at approximately 0.0538 AU from Kepler-5.

01.04.10 – Kepler’s first five exoplanets, named Kepler 4b, 5b, 6b, 7b and 8b, were announced a few months after the spacecraft began making science observations. This artist’s concept shows a cloudy Jupiter-like planet that orbits very close to its fiery hot star.

A comprehensive study of Kepler phase curves and secondary eclipses -- temperatures and albedos of confirmed Kepler giant planets

Kepler’s high sensitivity to both small and large planets enabled the discovery of the exoplanets, named Kepler 4b, 5b, 6b, 7b and 8b. The discoveries were announced Monday, Jan. 4, by the members of the Kepler science team during a news briefing at the American Astronomical Society meeting in Washington.

We present 44 days of high duty cycle, ultra precise photometry of the 13th magnitude star Kepler-5 (KIC 8191672, T eff = 6300 K, log g= 4.1), which exhibits periodic transits with a depth of 0.7%.

We report the discovery and confirmation of Kepler-5b, a strongly irradiated transiting hot Jupiter. We describe the Kepler photometry and transit modeling, and the follow-up observations used to confirm that Kepler-5b is a planet, including an orbital solution using radial velocities obtained with HIRES on Keck 1.

Kepler-5 b is an exoplanet orbiting the star Kepler-5, located about 2933.7 light-years (899.5 pc) away from Solar System. Its discovery was publicly announced on 2009. The host star Kepler-5 has apparent magnitude of 12.1, with absolute magnitude of 2.3.
