HD 194612(HR 7812) is a solitary[14]orange hued star located in the southerncircumpolar constellationOctans.It has anapparent magnitudeof 5.9,[2]making it visible to thenaked eyeunder ideal conditions.Parallaxmeasurements place it at a distance of 760light years[1]and it has a low heliocentricradial velocityof0.3km/s.[6]

This is ared giantwith astellar classificationof K5 III,[4]andGaia DR3stellar evolutionmodels place it on thered giant branch.[3]It has double themass of the Sun[8]and an enlargedradiusof59.9R[9]due to its evolved status. It shines with aluminosityof598L[10]from itsphotosphereat aneffective temperatureof3,941K.[9]Like many giants, HD 194612 has a comparatively modestprojected rotational velocity,which is around2.3km/s.[11]
