Pi4Orionis4Ori, π4Orionis) is abinary starsystem in the western part of theOrionconstellation.It is visible to the naked eye with anapparent visual magnitudeof 3.7.[2]Based upon an annualparallax shiftof 3.1mass,[1]it is located roughly 1,050light-yearsfrom theSun.

This is aspectroscopic binarystar system with anorbital periodof 9.5 days and aneccentricityof 0.03.[5]The primary component is aB-type starwith astellar classificationof B2 III.[3]Thestellar spectrumof π4Ori A shows a strong depletion of the elementboron.[12]It has nearly 11[6]times themass of the Sunand nine times theSun's radius.[7]The star is 15.4[10]million years old and has aprojected rotational velocityof 38 km/s.[9]It shines with 19,726[6]times thesolar luminosityfrom itsouter atmosphereat aneffective temperatureof21,874K.[7]
