Astrophysical Synthesis & Habitability Characterization

M62H b is a confirmed gas giant exoplanet orbiting the star M62H. First announced in 2024 by South African Radio Astronomy Observatory (SARAO) using the Pulsar Timing detection technique, this world has a minimum or true mass of 785.036 Earth masses (2.47 M♃), while its physical transit radius has not yet been geometrically observed.

In its orbital architecture around M62H, M62H b completes one full revolution every 0.133 Earth days.

ℹ️ Thermal & Atmospheric Regime: Current photometric and spectroscopic constraints for M62H b place it outside the conservative habitable zone definition pending further atmospheric characterization.

The host star M62H is classified as a stellar host with a mass of 1.4 M☉.
