HD 187123 b is a typical "hot Jupiter" located approximately 156 light-years away in the constellation of Cygnus, orbiting the star HD 187123. It has a mass about half that of Jupiter and it orbits in a very tight, round orbit around the star every three days.[3][4]

The star has also been monitored for possible transits by the planet, but none was found.
