WASP-34, also named Amansinaya,[7] is a sunlike star of spectral type G5V that has 1.01 times the mass and 0.93 times the diameter of the Sun. It rotates on its axis every 34±15 days, indicating it is around 6.7 billion years old. It hosts at least one exoplanet.[4]
Naming
[edit | edit source]In 2019 the IAU announced as part of NameExoWorlds that WASP-34 and its planet WASP-34b would be given official names chosen by school children from the Philippines.[8][9] The star is named Amansinaya, after Aman Sinaya, which is one of the two trinity deities of the Philippine's Tagalog mythology, and is the primordial deity of the ocean and protector of fisherman. The planet WASP-34b is named Haik. Haik is the successor of the primordial Aman Sinaya as the god of the sea of the Philippines' Tagalog mythology.[7]
Planetary system
[edit | edit source]WASP-34 has a transiting planet discovered in 2011 by the Wide Angle Search for Planets. This is a hot Jupiter, with just over half the mass of Jupiter and taking just 4.3 days to complete an orbit.[4] The planetary color was found to be redder than other hot Jupiters, hinting at peculiar chemistry.[10] The planet has a large measured temperature difference between the dayside (1185±47 K) and nightside (726±119 K).[11]
There is a long-period radial velocity trend, showing evidence for a massive object orbiting further out.[4] A 2014 study suggests an object at least 15 times the mass of Jupiter at a distance of 5 AU.[12]
