54 Perseiis a single[10]starin the northernconstellationofPerseus.It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-hued star with anapparent visual magnitudeof 4.93.[2]The star is located approximately 220light yearsaway based onparallax,but is drifting closer with aradial velocityof −27 km/s.[5]

This is an aginggiant starwith astellar classificationof G8+ IIIb,[3]a star that has exhausted the supply of hydrogen at itscoreand expanded to more than nine times the girth of the Sun. It is around 580 million years old with 2.6 times themass of the Sun.The star is radiating 51 times theluminosity of the Sunfrom its enlargedphotosphereat aneffective temperatureof 5,036 K.[7]It has one distantvisual companion,designated component B, at anangular separationof93and magnitude 13.0.[11]
