ι Lyrae,Latinised asIota Lyrae,is abinary star[3]in the northernconstellationofLyra.It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, blue-white hued star with anapparent visual magnitudethat fluctuates around 5.22.[3]This object is located approximately 910light yearsdistant from the Sun based onparallax,but is drifting nearer with aradial velocityof −26 km/s.[6]

This is a wide binary system with a computedorbital periodof 217 years and aneccentricityof 0.6.[8]The primary component has astellar classificationof B6IV,[4]matching aB-typesubgiant star.It is aBe star,[14]displayingemission linesin itsspectrum,and is spinning rapidly with aprojected rotational velocityof224 km/s.[11]The star ranges in brightness from magnitude 5.20 down to 5.27.[5]It has about five times themass of the Sunand is radiating 854 times theSun's luminosityfrom itsphotosphereat aneffective temperatureof12,059K.
