[4] The star has a spectral type of F2/F3V and is about 50% more massive than the Sun[2] and is located approximately 110.5 parsecs (360 ly) distant from Earth.
[4] Data from the Spitzer Space Telescope revealed a large infrared excess consistent with the presence of a luminous, dusty circumstellar disk.
[5] On May 26, 2015 a team led by Thayne Currie, Carey Lisse, and Marc Kuchner announced the discovery of a scattered light-resolved debris disk[4] likely responsible for the system's strong infrared excess around HD 115600 using the Gemini Planet Imager.
The debris disk is shaped like a ring and has a (luminosity-scaled) semimajor axis of about 48 (22) AU, comparable to the current Kuiper belt.
[4] The dust making the ring visible appears to be neutral scattering; spectra of the ring ansae reveal a gray to slightly blue color, consistent with major Kuiper belt constituents.
