Radial velocity monitoring of 5 FGK stars
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We report the detection of two new long-period giant planets orbiting the stars HD 95872 and HD 162004 ({psi}^1^ Dra B) by the McDonald Observatory planet search.
Description
The planet HD 95872b has a minimum mass of 4.6M_Jup_ and an orbital semimajor axis of 5.2AU. The giant planet {psi}^1^ Dra Bb has a minimum mass of 1.5M_Jup_ and an orbital semimajor axis of 4.4AU.
Both of these planets qualify as Jupiter analogs. These results are based on over one and a half decades of precise radial velocity (RV) measurements collected by our program using the McDonald Observatory Tull Coude spectrograph at the 2.7m Harlan J. Smith Telescope. In the case of {psi}^1^ Dra B we also detect a long-term nonlinear trend in our data that indicates the presence of an additional giant planet, similar to the Jupiter-Saturn pair.

The primary of the binary star system, {psi}^1^ Dra A, exhibits a very large amplitude RV variation due to another stellar companion. We detect this additional member using speckle imaging. We also report two cases --HD 10086 and HD 102870 ({beta} Virginis)-- of significant RV variation consistent with the presence of a planet, but that are probably caused by stellar activity, rather than reflexive Keplerian motion.
These two cases stress the importance of monitoring the magnetic activity level of a target star, as long-term activity cycles can mimic the presence of a Jupiter-analog planet.
