'''HD 111395''' is a single,<ref name=Fuhrmann2017/> [[variable star]] in the northern [[constellation]] of [[Coma Berenices]]. It has the [[variable star designation]] '''LW Comae Berenices''';<ref name=Samus2017/> ''HD 111395'' is the ''[[Henry Draper Catalogue]]'' designation. The star has a yellow hue and is just bright enough to be barely visible to the [[naked eye]] with an [[apparent visual magnitude]] that fluctuates around 6.29.<ref name=Anderson2012/> Based upon [[stellar parallax|parallax]] measurements, it is located at a distance of 55.8&nbsp;[[light year]]s from the [[Sun]].<ref name=GaiaDR3/> The star is drifting closer with a [[radial velocity]] of −8.9&nbsp;km/s.<ref name=Soubiran2013/> It is a member of the [[Eta Chamaeleontis]] stellar kinematic group.<ref name=Nakajima2012/>

This object is a [[G-type main-sequence star]] with a [[stellar classification]] of G7V.<ref name=Gray2006/> Klaus G. Strassmeier ''et al.'' announced their discovery that HD 111395 is a variable star, in 1997.<ref name="Strassmeier1997"/> It was given its variable star designation in 2006.<ref name="Kazarovets2006"/> It is a [[BY Draconis variable]] that varies in brightness by about 0.10 magnitude over a period of 15.8&nbsp;days,<ref name=Samus2017/> which is interpreted as the [[rotation period]] of the star. (Messina et al. (2003) suspect the actual rotation period may be half that: 7.9&nbsp;days.<ref name=Messina2003/>) It has an [[magnetic activity|active]] [[chromosphere]]<ref name=Strassmeier1997/> and is a source for [[X-ray astronomy|X-ray emission]].<ref name=Greiner2015/>

The star is around a billion years old with a [[projected rotational velocity]] of 3.8&nbsp;km/s.<ref name=McCarthy2014/> It has slightly above solar [[metallicity]] − the term astronomers use for the relative abundance of elements other than hydrogen and helium. The mass of the star is 8% greater than the Sun,<ref name=McCarthy2014/> but it has 93% of the [[Sun's radius]].<ref name=GaiaDR2/> It is radiating 80% of the luminosity of the Sun from its [[photosphere]] at an [[effective temperature]] of 5649&nbsp;K.<ref name=GaiaDR2/> An [[infrared excess]] indicates a cold [[debris disk]] is orbiting the star at a distance of {{Val|17.48|ul=AU}} with a mean temperature of 60&nbsp;K. The disk has an estimated mass of {{Val|5.86|e=−6|ul=Earth mass}}.<ref name=gaspar2016/>
