Three planets around HD 27894: a close-in pair with a 2:1 period ratio and an eccentric Jovian planet at 5.4 AU
Aims. Our new program with HARPS aims to detect mean motion resonant planetary systems around stars which were previously reported to have a single bona fide planet, often based only on sparse radial velocity data. Methods. Archival and new HARPS radial velocities for the K2V star HD 27894 were comb...

| Zusammenfassung: | Aims. Our new program with HARPS aims to detect mean motion resonant planetary systems around stars which were previously reported to have a single bona fide planet, often based only on sparse radial velocity data. Methods. Archival and new HARPS radial velocities for the K2V star HD 27894 were combined and fitted with a three-planet self-consistent dynamical model. The best-fit orbit was tested for long-term stability. Results. We find clear evidence that HD 27894 is hosting at least three massive planets. In addition to the already known Jovian planet with a period $P_{\rm b}$ $\approx$ 18 days we discover a Saturn-mass planet with $P_{\rm c}$ $\approx$ 36 days, likely in a 2:1 mean motion resonance with the first planet, and a cold massive planet ($\approx$ 5.3 $M_{\mathrm{Jup}}$) with a period $P_{\rm d}$ $\approx$ 5170 days on a moderately eccentric orbit ( |
