Description
The star is young and very active and is a member of the AB Doradus Moving Group.[6] The star has also been studied and monitored by SuperWASP group and found to coincide with the ROSAT source 1RXS J072343.6+202500.[1] The planet candidate was announced in December 2009.[4]
Doubtful planet
The Keplerian fit of the RV data suggested an orbital solution for a close-in massive planet with an orbital period of 7.7834 days. Moreover, the presence of a close-in massive jovian planet could explain the high level of stellar activity detected.[4] However, further study suggests that this planet may not exist because the radial velocity variations are strongly correlated to stellar activity, suggesting this activity is the cause of the variations.[7] This echoes the similar case of the disproven planet detection around TW Hydrae, which was also found to be due to stellar activity rather than orbital motion.[8]
