The name J1407b follows the exoplanet naming convention by adding the letter "b" after the host star's name. [5] At the time of J1407b's discovery, V1400 Centauri was known as "J1407", which is the shortened form of the star's full SuperWASP catalogue designation 1SWASP J140747.93–394542.6.
V1400 Centauri, also known as 1SWASP J140747.93−394542.6 or simply J1407, is a young, pre-main-sequence star that was eclipsed by the likely free-floating substellar object J1407b in April–June 2007.
In fairness, J1407b hasn't received any press releases from academic organizations (in press releases, organizations commission artists to make illustrations that would then become widely used) since its discovery announcement in 2015 (before evidence supporting J1407b being unrelated to V1400 Cen was published), so we're stuck with outdated ...
Comment: The J1407b article was converted from redirect into article as a result of a split from the V1400 Centauri article. I began slowly expanding V1400 Centauri on 8 July 2024, but I did not add much to the J1407b section until 24 July 2024. As of today, it's been 5 days since I significantly expanded the J1407b section.
2012 — It has been surmised that J1407b, a possibly planetary-mass object that eclipsed the star V1400 Centauri (aka. J1407) in 2007, may have a few moons based on gaps observed in its circumstellar disk or ring system. [1]
