'''CP Boötis''' is a yellow-white hued [[star]] in the northern [[constellation]] of [[Boötes]]. With a baseline [[apparent visual magnitude]] of 6.40,<ref name=Karatas2006/> it is at or near the lower limit for visibility with the typical [[naked eye]] in good viewing conditions. The distance to this star can be estimated from its annual [[stellar parallax|parallax shift]] of {{Val|12.91|ul=mas}},<ref name=GaiaDR2/> which yields a range of 252.6 [[light year]]s. It is moving further away with a heliocentric [[radial velocity]] of +5.9 km/s.<ref name=Casagrande2011/>
In May of 1977, Michel Auvergne ''et al.'' inadvertently discovered that the star is a [[variable star]], when they used it as a comparison star for photometric observations of [[gamma Boötis]].<ref name="Auvergne1977"/> It was given its [[variable star designation]], CP Boötis, in 1981.<ref name="Kholopov1981"/>
This is an [[F-type star|F-type]] [[subgiant star]] with a [[stellar classification]] of F8 IVw,<ref name=Barry1970/> which indicates it has nearly consumed the hydrogen at its core and is now [[stellar evolution|evolving]] into a [[giant star]]. It is a low amplitude [[Delta Scuti variable]]<ref name=Galeev2012/> that varies by 0.02 magnitude.<ref name=AAVSOBP/> At the age of 1.7<ref name=Casagrande2011/> billion years it is spinning with a [[projected rotational velocity]] of 5.7 km/s.<ref name=lebre1999/> The star has 1.77<ref name=Casagrande2011/> times the [[mass of the Sun]] and is radiating 12<ref name=doNascimento2000/> times the [[Sun's luminosity]] from its [[photosphere]] at an [[effective temperature]] of 6,276 K.<ref name=Casagrande2011/>
