data

HD 220074 is a M2III red giant star located in Cassiopeia.

It had been considered K1V but is now known as M2III due to radius and surface gravity.[2]

Planetary system

From September 2008 to June 2012, the team B.-C. Lee, I. Han, and M.-G. Park observed HD 220074 with "the high-resolution spectroscopy of the fiber-fed Bohyunsan Observatory Echelle Spectrograph (BOES) at Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO)".

In 2012, a long-period, wide-orbiting eccentric planet was deduced by radial velocity. This was published in November, gaining the designation HD 220074 b.[1] Along with HD 208527 b this is one of the first two planets proposed around a red giant.
