HD 93083 is an 8th magnitude star located approximately 91 light years away in the southern constellation of Antlia. It is an orange dwarf (spectral class K2V), somewhat cooler and less luminous than our Sun.
In 2005, the discovery of a planet orbiting the star was announced. This is another discovery using the radial velocity method with the HARPS spectrograph.
