| Planet | Orbital period | Distance from star | Radius (Earths) | Mass (Earths) | Found | Method |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| nu Oph b | 529.9 days | 1.765 AU | at least 6,849 | 2012 | Radial Velocity | |
| nu Oph c | 8.708 years | 5.829 AU | at least 7,530 | 2012 | Radial Velocity |
"At least" is a minimum mass. Radial velocity can only measure mass times the sine of the orbit's tilt.
