Spectroscopic binary star system in the constellation Perseus
43 Persei is a
binary star
[7]
[11] system in the northern
constellation
Perseus . It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, yellow-white hued star with an
apparent visual magnitude of 5.28.
[2] The system is located around 38.5 parsecs (125.4 ly) distant from the Sun, based on
parallax .
[1]
This is a double-lined
spectroscopic binary with an
orbital period of 30.4 days and an
eccentricity of 0.6.
[7] The primary component is an
F-type main-sequence star with a
stellar classification of F5V,
[3] a star that is fusing its core
hydrogen . It has 1.54
[8] times the
mass of the Sun , 2.4
[8] times the
Sun's radius , and is spinning with a
projected rotational velocity of 17 km/s (11 mi/s).
[10] The star shines 10.8
[2] times
brighter than the Sun at an
effective temperature of 6,609 K (6,336 °C; 11,437 °F).
[9]
There are distant companions B (separation 75.5" and magnitude 10.66), C (separation 85.6" and magnitude 12.18), and D (separation 68" and magnitude 13.43).
