Proxima Centauri b Proxima Centauri b Proxima Centauri b (also called Proxima b or Alpha Centauri Cb) is an exoplanet orbiting in the habitable zone of the red dwarf star Proxima Centauri, which is the closest star to the Sun and part of a triple star system. It is located about 4.2 light-years (1.3 parsecs, 40 trillion km, or 25 trillion miles) from Earth in the constellation of Centaurus, making it the closest known exoplanet to the Solar System. Proxima Centauri b orbits the star at a distance of roughly with an orbital period of approximately 11.2 Earth days, and has an estimated
3-j symbol more symmetrical than the C-G coefficient. Since the state formula_5 is unchanged by rotation, one also says that the contraction of the product of three rotational states with a 3-"j" symbol is invariant under rotations. The Wigner 3-"j" symbol is zero unless all these conditions are satisfied: A 3-"j" symbol is invariant under an even permutation of its columns: An odd permutation of the columns gives a phase factor: Changing the sign of the formula_11 quantum numbers (time-reversal) also gives a phase: The 3-"j" symbols also have so-called Regge symmetries, which are not due to permutations or time-reversal. These symmetries
