Notes. (1) The distance uncertainty quotes results after considering a velocity uncertainty of 21 km s−1, which is the standard deviation of the radial velocities of the members of Masgomas-6b. (2) Uncertainty after assuming 15 km s−1 of line velocity uncertainty, which is half of the HPBW of the radio recombination lines.
