HD 233731
HD 233731, or HAT-P-22, is a suspected multiple star system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Ursa Major. It is invisible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 9.732. This system is located at a distance of 267 light years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +13 km/s. The stellar classification of the primary is G5V, matching an ordinary G-type main-sequence star. The star has a low level of stellar activity with an estimated age of 9 to 12 billion years  old. Its metallicity is twice that of the Sun, unusual for its advanced age. HD 233731 has a similar mass and radius as the Sun, and is spinning with a rotation period of 28.7 days. It is radiating 77% of the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5314 K. A faint stellar companion (2MASS J10224397+5007504) with a red hue is located at an angular separation of from the primary. In 2015, a spectroscopic stellar companion was reported with a semimajor axis of less than . This star has an effective temperature of with  a mass of . Planetary system. In 2010 a transiting hot Jupiter like planet was detected, designated HAT-P-22b. It has an equilibrium temperature of , and planetary atmosphere is cloudy. The measurement of Rossiter-McLaughlin effect in 2018 has allowed to detect what the planetary orbit is well aligned with the equatorial plane of the star, with a misalignment angle equal to . In 2017, analysis of additional HARPS data showed a long-term trend that suggested the presence of an additional orbiting companion, HAT-P-22c.
