Researchers from Nevada University, Las Vegas, have worked with colleagues to identify three-star solar systems. The fact that the system has three stars is not an interesting. It seems that the star system might have a orbiting planet. If the planets orbit the trio of the star, it will be the first triple star system ever found with a orbiting planet.

The solar system with two stars or more is believed to represent at least half of the All-Star system makes it very common. The star system that the researchers have learned is called GW ORI. If the team can confirm the planet, it will be an orbit across the first ever found. The researchers used observations from Alma’s telescope and found the trio of dust rings around three stars.

The dust ring of this type is needed for the planetary formation. However, what made the researchers believe that the three-star system might already have a orbiting planet is a substantial gap in a siriktriple disk. The team has investigated various potential areas for the gap, including the gravitational torque of the stars causing them.

However, after building a comprehensive star system model, they determine the most likely explanation is the existence of one or more planets like Jupiter. Astronomers know that gas giants are usually the first type of planet formed in a star system, with planets similar to Earth and Mars coming later.

Scientists have been clear that no direct observation of the planet in the star system has been made. The team expects additional observations using Alma in the coming months and hopes additional evidence for the planet will be found.
