The "anchor points" and "dagger standards" of the MK spectral classification system among the A-type main - sequence dwarf stars, i.e. those standard stars that have remain unchanged over years and can be considered to define the system, are Vega (A0 V), Gamma Ursae Majoris (A0 V), and Fomalhaut (A3 V). The seminal review of MK classification by Morgan & Keenan (1973) did not provide any dagger standards between types A3 V and F2 V. HD 23886 was suggested as an A5 V standard in 1978 . Richard Gray & Robert Garrison provided the most recent contributions to the A dwarf spectral sequence in a pair of papers in 1987 and 1989 . They list an assortment of fast - and slow - rotating A-type dwarf spectral standards, including HD 45320 (A1 V), HD 88955 (A2 V), 2 Hydri (A7 V), 21 Leonis Minoris (A7 V), and 44 Ceti (A9 V). Besides the MK standards provided in Morgan's papers and the Gray & Garrison papers, one also occasionally sees Delta Leonis (A4 V) listed as a standard . There are no published A6 V and A8 V standard stars . </P> <P> A-type stars are young (typically few hundred million years) and many emit infrared radiation beyond what would be expected from the star alone . This IR excess is attributable to dust emission from a debris disk where planets form . Surveys indicate massive planets commonly form around A-type stars although these planets are difficult to detect using the Doppler spectroscopy method . This is because A-type stars typically rotate very quickly, which makes it very difficult to measure the small Doppler shifts induced by orbiting planets since the spectral lines are very broad . However, this type of massive star eventually evolves into a cooler red giant which rotates more slowly and thus can be measured using the radial velocity method . As of early 2011 about 30 Jupiter class planets have been found around evolved K - giant stars including Pollux, Gamma Cephei and Iota Draconis . Doppler surveys around a wide variety of stars indicate about 1 in 6 stars having twice the mass of the Sun are orbited by one or more Jupiter - sized planets, vs. 1 in 16 for Sun - like stars . </P> <P> A-type stars known to have planets include Fomalhaut, HD 15082, Beta Pictoris and HD 95086 b . </P>
