At a combined [[apparent magnitude]] of +5.55,<ref name=XHIP/> it is faintly visible to the [[naked eye]] in locations far from [[light pollution]]. [[Parallax]] measurements give distances of {{convert|125.8|pc|ly|order=flip|abbr=off|lk=on}} and {{convert|124.6|pc|ly|order=flip|abbr=off}} for the primary and secondary, respectively.

==Characteristics== The two components are separated by 3.5" along a [[position angle]] of 301°, {{as of|lc=y|2016}}.<ref name=WDS/> They have [[apparent magnitude]]s of 5.77 and 7.94.<ref name=WDS/>

The primary (A) has a [[spectral class]] of G8 III, with the [[luminosity class]] 'III' suggesting it is a [[giant star|giant]] that has exhausted the [[hydrogen]] at its [[stellar core|core]].<ref name=Corbally1984/> The star has expanded to 11.8 times the [[Sun's radius]]<ref name=Kammerer2025/> and now radiates 84 times the [[Sun's luminosity]] from its [[photosphere]]<ref name=XHIP/> at an [[effective temperature]] of {{Val|5784|ul=K|fmt=commas}}.<ref name=Kammerer2025/> This temperature gives it a yellow hue typical of a [[G-type star]].<ref name=csiro/>

The secondary (B) has a spectral class of G0 IV, with the luminosity class 'IV' suggesting it is a subgiant that has exhausted the hydrogen at its core.<ref name=Corbally1984/> The star has expanded to 2.0 times the [[Sun's radius]] and has an [[effective temperature]] of {{Val|5947|ul=K|fmt=commas}}.<ref name=Kammerer2025/> This temperature gives it a yellow hue typical of a [[G-type star]].<ref name=csiro/>
