Gliese 514, also known as BD+11 2576 or HIP 65859, is a M-type main-sequence star, in the constellation Virgo 24.85 light-years away from the Sun. The proximity of Gliese 514 to the Sun was known exactly since 1988.[11]

Gliese 514's metallicity Fe/H index is largely unknown, with median values from -0.4 to +0.18 reported in the literature. This discrepancy is due to peculiarities of the stellar spectrum of Gliese 514. The spectrum peculiarities also affect the accuracy of the star's temperature measurement,[9] with reported values as low as 2901 K.[7] The spectrum of Gliese 514 shows emission lines,[2] but the star itself has a low starspot activity.[12]

Multiplicity surveys did not detect any stellar companions as of 2020.[13]

The Sun is currently calculated to be passing through the tidal tail of Gliese 514`s Oort cloud. Thus, future interstellar objects passing through Solar system may originate from Gliese 514.[14]

Planetary system

The existence of a planet on a 15-day orbit around Gliese 514 was suspected since 2019.[15] However, that planet was not confirmed. Instead, in 2022, one Super-Earth planet, named Gliese 514 b, was discovered on an eccentric 140-day orbit by the radial velocity method. The planetary orbit partially lies within the habitable zone of the parent star with planetary equilibrium temperature, averaged along orbit, equal to 202±11 K.[8]

The infrared excess of the star also indicates the possible presence of a debris disk in the system, albeit at a low signal to noise ratio.[16]
