HR 5110,also known asBH Canum Venaticorum,is abinary star[6]system in thenorthernconstellationofCanes Venatici.It is visible to the naked eye with anapparent visual magnitudeof 4.91.[3]Based upon an annualparallax shiftof21.90±0.23mas,[2]it is located 149light-yearsaway. The system is moving further from theSunwith a heliocentricradial velocityof 6.4 km/s.[3]

This is a close binary system with an orbital period of 2.6 days and an orbital plane that is oriented nearly face-on.[6]It may be considered anAlgol-typesemidetached binary.The hotter primary component has astellar classificationof F2 IV,[5]indicating it is anevolvingsubgiant starthat is leaving themain sequenceafter consuming the hydrogen at its core.

HR 5110 is classified as aRS Canum Venaticorum variablesystem, primarily due tochromospheric activityin the secondary component.[5]This star has a classification of K0 IV, matching aK-typesubgiantstar.[5]Based upon the close separation of the pair and the class of the secondary component, that latter is probably filling itsroche lobe.This star is most likely the source of the radio emission from this system, and the alignment of this signal is consistent with a polarstarspot.[6]
