36 G. Doradus(HD 40409) is a suspectedastrometric binary[7]starsystem in the southernconstellationofDorado.It is a faint system but visible to the naked eye with anapparent visual magnitudeof 4.65.[2]Based upon an annualparallax shiftof36.60mas,[1]it is located 89light yearsaway from theSun.It is moving further away with a heliocentricradial velocityof +25 km/s.[2]The system has a relatively high proper motion, traversing thecelestial sphereat the rate of0.57arcsecondsper year along aposition angleof 14.51°.[8]

Based on thestellar classificationof K2 III assigned by Gray et al. (2006),[3]the visible component is aK-typegiant star.In contrast, Keenan and McNeil (1989) gave it a somewhat less evolved classification of K2 III–IV.[9]It is about eight billion years old[5]with 7% moremass than the Sun,and has expanded to 4.76 times theSun's radius.The star is radiating 11 times theSun's luminosityfrom its enlargedphotosphereat aneffective temperatureof 4,807 K.[4]
