Subgigantes

Las subgigantes representan una fase de transición en la vida de una estrella. Cuando una estrella como nuestro Sol agota el hidrógeno de su núcleo, abandona la secuencia principal y comienza a expandirse. El núcleo se contrae y calienta, mientras las capas exteriores se enfrían y se hinchan. La estrella mantiene una masa similar, pero su diámetro crece considerablemente. Un cambio en su clase espectral refleja esta bajada de temperatura superficial, pasando del amarillo al naranja o rojo. Es el primer paso para convertirse en gigante roja.

The planet HD 715 b has been confirmed as a warm Jupiter orbiting the bright subgiant star HD 715, also known as TOI-6893. Warm Jupiters are gas giant planets that orbit their host stars very close. The planet was first detected when it passed in front of its host star, an event known as a transit that causes a slight dip in the star's brightness. HD 715 is a massive subgiant star, with a mass approximately 1.6 times that of our Sun, making it one of the largest stars currently known to host suc...
