HD 95086 is a pre-main-sequence star[2] about 282 light-years (86parsecs) away. Its surface temperature is 7,750±250 K. HD 95086 is somewhat metal-deficient in comparison to the Sun, with a metallicity Fe/H index of −0.25±0.5 (~55%), and is much younger at an age of 13.3 million years.[4] It was originally thought to be part of the Lower Centaurus-Crux association, until it was found using Gaia data that the star may be instead part of the Carina association.[4]
Multiplicity surveys did not detect any stellar companions to HD 95086 as of 2013.[6]
The designation HD 95086 comes from the Henry Draper Catalogue.
In August 2022, this planetary system was included among 20 systems to be named by the third NameExoWorlds project.[7] The approved names, proposed by a team from Greece, were announced in June 2023. HD 95086 is named Aiolos after a Greek mythological figure, and its planet is named Levantes, from a modern Greek word referring to easterly Mediterranean winds.[8]
In 2013, one planet, named HD 95086 b, was discovered on a wide orbit by direct imaging.[9] The discovery was confirmed in 2014.[10]
Besides the planet, the star is surrounded by a complex, relatively massive (0.5±0.2 ME) debris disk, which may consist of up to four belts (Hot, Warm, Cold and Halo) separated by gaps.[3] A small amount (1.4–13)×10−6 ME of gaseous carbon monoxide was detected in the outer disk, implying a recent collisional cascade followed by cometary activity of fresh debris.[11]
