OU Andromedae a nearby giant planet, such as a hot Jupiter, since an infrared excess has been observed. Another explanation relies on its strong magnetic field; if OU Andromedae was an Ap star during its main sequence stage of evolution, so it could have retained both the strong magnetic field and the fast rotation of Ap stars. OU Andromedae is also a bright X-ray source, due to the activity of its corona; it's estimated that solar-like active regions cover 30% of the surface. This is another effect of the strong magnetic field, which produces an uninterrupted flaring activity that generates a large
