      Description The star HD 11506 is a yellow dwarf star in the constellation Cetus. The star hosts two planets. The inner planer was discovered by using Bayesian analysis (Tuomi et al 2009). The N2K campaign improves the data in 2014 with some further years of observations since the discovery.

      Planet sizes

      The following plot shows the approximate sizes of the planets in this system The Solar System planets are shown as a comparison. Note that unless the radius has been determined through a transit observation, this is only an approximation (see Lissauer et al. 2011b).

      Habitable zone

      The following plot shows the approximate location of the planets in this system with respect to the habitable zone (green) and the size of the star (red). This is only an estimate, using the star's spectral type and mass. Note that if no green band is shown in the plot, then the planet's orbit is far outside the habitable zone. The equations of Selsis, Kasting et al are used to draw the inner and outer boundaries.
