OGLE-2014-BLG-0319L b
Astrophysical Synthesis & Habitability Characterization
OGLE-2014-BLG-0319L b is a confirmed gas giant exoplanet orbiting the star OGLE-2014-BLG-0319L, located approximately 25211.9 light-years (7730 parsecs) from the Solar System. First announced in 2022 by OGLE using the Microlensing detection technique (detected via relativistic gravitational lensing of a background source star), this world measures 14.1 Earth radii (1.26 Jupiter radii) and has a measured mass of 181.162 Earth masses (0.57 Jupiter masses). Combining its mass and radius yields a mean bulk density of 0.36 g/cm³ (a low bulk density dominated by an extended hydrogen-helium gaseous envelope), a surface gravity of 0.91 g⊕ (8.92 m/s²), and an escape velocity of 40.1 km/s.
☁️ Atmospheric Regime (Volatile / Gas Envelope): With a radius of 14.100 R⊕, OGLE-2014-BLG-0319L b exceeds the empirical ~1.8–2.2 R⊕ Fulton radius valley threshold, indicating a substantial hydrogen-helium or supercritical volatile envelope without a conventional solid terrestrial surface.
The host star OGLE-2014-BLG-0319L is classified as a low-mass red dwarf of spectral type M with a mass of 0.52 M☉.
Methodology: Computed using the Schulze-Makuch et al. (2011) weighted metric comparing physical interior (radius, estimated density) and surface thermal regime (escape velocity, equilibrium temperature).
