It has the proper name Kaveh, which was selected by Iran during the NameExoWorlds campaign as part of the 100th anniversary of the IAU.
[7][8] The apparent visual magnitude of 8.02[2] is too faint for this star to be visible in the naked eye.
It is located at a distance of approximately 424 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +20 km/s.
[9] It is around three[4] billion years old and is chromospherically inactive[9] with low a projected rotational velocity of 0.5 km/s.
It is radiating ten times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,093 K.[4] In April 2007, a Jovian planet was found orbiting this star using the radial velocity method, from Lick and Keck Observatories in Mount Hamilton (California) and Mauna Kea (Hawai'i), United States.
