HD 142527 is a binary star system in the constellation of Lupus.[7][8] The primary star belongs to the Herbig Ae/Be star class, while the companion, discovered in 2012, is a red dwarf star or accreting protoplanet[5] with a projected separation of less than 0.1″.[9] The system is notable for its circumbinary protoplanetary disk and its discovery has helped refine models of planet formation. The orbit of companion is strongly inclined to the circumbinary protoplanetary disk.[5]

HD 142527 is listed in the International Variable star index as a UX Orionis variable, with a visible-light magnitude ranging from 8.27 to 8.60.[10]
