55 Cancri Ae

Hot Super-Earth orbiting 55 Cancri A
Abstract

55 Cancri Ae, officially named Janssen, is an exoplanet orbiting a Sun-like host star, 55 Cancri A. The mass of the exoplanet is about eight Earth masses and its diameter is about twice that of the Earth. 55 Cancri Ae was discovered in data taken during 2003–2004 and announced in 2004, thus making it the first super-Earth discovered around a main sequence star, predating Gliese 876 d by a year. It is the innermost planet in its planetary system, taking less than 18 hours to complete an orbit. However, until the 2010 observations and recalculations, this planet had been thought to take about 2.8 days to orbit the star.
