HD 13189 is an 8th magnitude star in Triangulum constellation.

In 2005, a planetary companion or brown dwarf was announced in orbit around this star. At the time, the parallax estimate was 0.54 ± 0.93 mas, which would suggest a distance of 6,040 ly (1,850 pc) with a high margin of error.[2] In 2007, van Leeuwen published a revised parallax measurement of 1.78 ± 0.73, which corresponds to a distance of 1,830 ly (560 pc) with a smaller but still significant margin of error.[1]

It has a spectral classification of K1II-III, making it a giant star that has evolved away from the main sequence. The mass is 2–7 times the Sun,[2] while measurements of the star's radius give estimates of 45.5[6] or 50.4[7] solar radii. This mass range is typical of a B-type main sequence star,[10] suggesting the star belong to stellar class B when it was on the main sequence. The atmosphere of the star displays short period radial velocity variations with a primary period of 4.89 days. This behavior is typical for giant K-type stars such as this and it is not the result of a close-orbit planetary companion.[5]

The star is possibly the most massive of all planet-harboring stars[11] although the star Epsilon Tauri is potentially more massive.[12]
