HD 164427 b is a brown dwarf with a minimum mass of 46 times that of Jupiter. It orbits at nearly half an astronomical unit or Earth-to-Sun distance away from its star (HD 164427). The angular separation between a brown dwarf and a yellow dwarf as viewed from Earth is 11.76 Milliarcseconds. It takes 108.55 Earth days to orbit eccentrically around HD 164427. It has a very high semi-amplitude of almost 1400 m/s, because this is a very massive object which exerts strong gravitational pull on its tugging star.[1]
