HD 208741
HD 208741,also known asHR 8380,is a yellowish-white huedstarlocated in the southerncircumpolar constellationOctans.It has anapparent magnitudeof 5.91,[2]making it faintly visible to thenaked eye.Parallaxmeasurements place it at a distance of 211light years,[1]and it is currently receding with a heliocentricradial velocityof8km/s.[10]
HD 208741 has a 10thmagnitudeK-type main-sequencecompanion[9]separated by34.8″.[4]Together, they make up a wide binary system designated collectively asCPD−76°1542.[4]Sir John Herschel,the discoverer of the pair, noted the primary to be a probablespectroscopic binary.[17]
This object has astellar classificationof F3 III,[6][7]indicating that it is a slightly evolvedF-type star.Gaia Data Release 3models it to be a dwarf that is 81.3% through itsmain sequencelifetime.[5]At present it has 1.52 times themass of the Sunand a slightly enlargedradiusof2.6R☉[12]due to its evolved state. It radiates at 12.9 times theluminosity of the Sun[13]from itsphotosphereat aneffective temperatureof6,937K.[14]HD 208741 has ametallicitytwice theSun's,[14]making it metal enriched. It is estimated to be 1.1billion yearsold,[16]and is spinning with aprojected rotational velocityof36km/s.[15]
