Hunt For Substellar Objects
The McDonald Observatory team has set limits to the presence of one or more planets around 36 Ophiuchi A with masses between 0.13 and 5.4 Jupiter masses and average separations spanning between 0.05 and 5.2 astronomical units, although the outermost stable orbits around either 36 Ophiuchi A or 36 Ophiuchi B are possible not beyond 1.5 AU.

Famous quotes containing the words hunt and/or objects:
“It flows through old hushed Egypt and its sands,
Like some grave mighty thought threading a dream,”

All thinking things, all objects of all thought,
And rolls through all things.”
