Luminosity has different meanings in several different fields of science 71 times greater than our Sun. The Sun (Sol is the Star at the center of the Solar System. HD 23596 dwarfs the Sun is terms of physical properties; including mass, radius, age, metallicity, and temperature. The spectrum of the star is F8.
The star is unusual as it have one known detected planet.

HD 23596 b is an exoplanet orbiting the star HD 23596. Any Planet is an extremely faint light source compared to its parent Star. Radial velocity is the Velocity of an object in the direction of the line of sight (i An extrasolar planet, or exoplanet, is a Planet beyond the Solar System, orbiting around other Stars As of September 2008 312 The planet is very massive, at least 7. 8 times that of Jupiter, classifying as mid-superjovian. Based on its mass, the planet would probably be a gas giant with no solid surface but with gaseous ocean. A gas giant (sometimes also known as a Jovian planet after the planet Jupiter, or giant planet) is a large Planet that is not primarily The planet orbits at the average distance of 2. 83 AU, taking 1565 days to complete its orbit with average velocity of 19. 7 km/s. The eccentricity of the planet’s orbit is higher than all the planets in our solar system, bringing as close as 2. The Solar System consists of the Sun and those celestial objects bound to it by Gravity. 00 AU to as far as 3. 66 AU from the parent star. Combining with very massive planet (7. 8 MJ) and wide separation (2. 83 AU) will yield high semi-amplitude of 124 m/s. Amplitude is the magnitude of change in the oscillating variable with each Oscillation, within an oscillating system
The planet was discovered by Perrier et al. in 2002 using his radial velocity technique to look for changes in toward (blue-shifting) and away (red-shifting) stellar motion in the sky [radial velocity]. Any Planet is an extremely faint light source compared to its parent Star. Radial velocity is the Velocity of an object in the direction of the line of sight (i
