Eggleton and Tokovinin (2008) list it as a single star,[9] although Nitschelm and David (2011) noted it may be a double-lined spectroscopic binary.
[10] Its apparent visual magnitude is 4.60,[2] which is bright enough to be visible to the naked eye.
Based upon an annual parallax shift of 13.6 mas,[1] it is located 240 light years away.
The stellar classification of the primary component is A0 V,[3] matching an A-type main-sequence star.
[7] The star is radiating 156 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,178 K.[6]
