HD 125040is a visualbinary starsystem in the northernconstellationofBoötes.It appears as a dim point of light near the lower limit of perception with the naked eye, having a combinedapparent visual magnitudeof 6.25.[2]The system is located at a distance of approximately 106light yearsfrom theSunbased onparallaxmeasurements,[1]but is drifting closer with aradial velocityof −7 km/s.[4]It has a highproper motion,traversing thecelestial sphereat anangular rateof0.164 arcseconds yr−1.[9]

This was first reported to be a double byJ. F. W. Herschelin 1830. The stars orbit each other with asemi-major axisof122AU,aperiodof roughly 956.6 years, and aneccentricityof 0.53. They have a combined mass about double that of the Sun.[6]The primary component is anF-type main-sequence starwith astellar classificationof F8V.[3]The system is a source forX-rayemission.[10]
