'''HD 133880''', also known as '''HR 5624''' and '''HR Lupi''', is a [[Bp star]] about 340 [[light year]]s from the Earth, in the constellation [[Lupus (constellation)|Lupus]].<ref name=dr3/> It is a 5th [[apparent magnitude|magnitude]] star, and will be faintly visible to the [[naked eye]] of an observer far from [[light pollution|city lights]]. It is an [[SX Arietis variable]] star, varying from magnitude 5.76 to 5.81 over a period of 21.0594 hours.<ref name="IVSI"/> HD 133880 is a member of the [[Scorpius–Centaurus association|Upper Centaurus–Lupus association]]. It is a young star, estimated to have completed only {{val|5|2}} percent of its projected [[main sequence]] lifetime.<ref name="Landstreet2007"/> It is one of the few stars known to produce coherent pulsed radio radiation via electron cyclotron maser emission.<ref name="Das2020"/>

The [[stellar spectrum|spectrum]] of HD 133880 matches a B8 [[subgiant]], but with unusually strong [[absorption line]]s of some metals, making it a member of the [[chemically peculiar]] Ap/Bp star class. For this particular star, silicon lines at {{val|fmt=commas|4200|ul=angstrom}} are notably strong.<ref name="Landstreet2007"/> Its rotation rate is unusually fast for a star of this type.<ref name="Bailey2012"/>

In 1985, Christoffel Waelkens found that HD 133880 is a variable star with a period of {{val|fmt=commas|0.87746|0.00001}} days, varying by 0.15, 0.10 and 0.06 magnitudes in the U, B and V [[Photometric system#Photometric letters|bands]] respectively.<ref name="Waelkens1985"/> In 1986, the star was given the variable star designation HR Lupi.<ref name="Kholopov1987"/> Later measurements of the period varied significantly, and can only be reconciled if the period varies in time.<ref name="Das2018"/>

In 1990, John Landstreet found that HD 133880 has a very strong (several k[[Gauss (unit)|G)]] [[magnetic field]], with the unusual property that its [[quadrupole]] term is stronger than the [[dipole]] term.<ref name="Landstreet1990"/> However a study in 2017 found the magnetic field was better described as a distorted asymmetric dipole, with a maximum strength of 12 kG, and an average strength of 4 kG.<ref name="Kochukhov2017"/>

Much of the research interest in HD 133880 arises from its radio emissions. Jeremy Lim ''et al.'' observed the star with the [[Australia Telescope Compact Array]] in 1995, and found that because the star's magnetic and rotation axes are not aligned, the 6&nbsp;cm wavelength radiation they measured showed variation in both strength and polarization as the star rotated.<ref name="Lim1996"/> In 2018 Barnali Das ''et al.'' detected electron [[Cyclotron radiation|cyclotron]] [[maser]] emission<ref name="Leto2016"/> from the star at 610&nbsp;MHz, using the [[Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope|GMRT]]. HD 133880 was the second star found to radiate in this way (after [[CU Virginis]]). The radiation was found to vary by an order of magnitude as the star rotated, and had roughly 100 percent right [[circular polarization]] when the emission peaked.<ref name="Das2018"/>
