High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! GJ 3634 b is a Super-Earth in the orbit of the nearby red dwarf GJ 3634. The planet is approximately eight times the mass of Earth, and orbits its star every two and a half days at a distance of .0287 AU. The planet was the first to be discovered by a group of astronomers searching for exoplanets in the orbit of very-low-mass stars after the team reorganized their strategy, choosing to search for targets that they could also confirm using the transit method. However, a transit event associated with GJ 3634 b was not detected. The planet`s discovery was published in Astronomy and Astrophysics on February 8, 2011.
