HD 89890is the brightest member of a multiplestar systemwith at least four components,[4]located in thesouthernconstellationofVela.It is visible to the naked eye with anapparent visual magnitudeof 4.50.[3]The annualparallax shiftof2.6mas[2]provides a distance estimate of around 1,200light-years(370parsecs). It is moving further away from Earth with a heliocentricradial velocityof +10 km/s.[5]

System

[edit]

TheWashington Double Star Cataloglists three visible components for this system. The brightest, component A, is of visual magnitude 4.50. Component B has a magnitude of 7.179,[9]and as of 2000 lies at anangular separationof7.10from A, along a position angle (PA) of 102°. Component C is a magnitude 9.125 star[9]at a separation of36.20″from A at a PA of 191°. The physical link between the stars was described on the basis of their dynamic parallax and mean velocities.[10]The three components A, B and C haveGaia Data Release 2parallaxes of2.6564±0.2314mas,2.1771±0.0490 mas,and1.6097±0.0400 mas,respectively.[2]

Properties

[edit]

Component A has astellar classificationof B3 III, and is categorized as aBe star.It showsphotometricvariations with multiple periods around 4.6 days andline-profile variations with a period of 2.318 days. The radial velocity of this star is constant.[4]It has 10[7]times theSun's radiusand shines with 3,082[5]times theSun's luminosityfrom itsphotosphereat aneffective temperatureof15,000K.[7]

The component B shows a variation in spectra consistent with being a double-linedspectroscopic binary.The brighter member (Ba) is asilicon starwith a class of A0 IVpSi, while the fainter component (Bb) is of type A2. Component C has a class of K0 III, indicating it is anevolvedgiant star.The measuredeffective temperatureof C is 5,500 K. The fact that component A most likely shares a common origin with C suggests that the former is much older than expected, and may actually be ablue stragglerformed from the merger of a close binary. This could have been caused by thegravitationalinfluence of an unseen companion of A.[4]
