[2] The Jupiter-like planet is discovered by 39 astronomers, mainly Max Günther, Didier Queloz, Edward Gillen, Laetitia Delrez, and Francois Bouchy.

It is the only planet orbiting around NGTS-3A, a G6V class star, situated in the constellation of Columba in 2480 light years from the Sun.

[3] The discovery of NGTS-3Ab, a hot Jupiter found orbiting a star in a still visually unresolved binary system, was announced in June 2018.

[1] The planetary system NGTS-3A was detected by a conjointly model multi-colour photometry, centroids and radial velocity (RV) extraction process.

RV cross-correlation functions (CCFs) and study correlations of the bisector inverse span (BIS) are simulated in order to define the characteristics of the exoplanet NGTS-3Ab.
