RA:
Dec:
0.0020 arcsec
0.0015 arcsec
Astrometric reference flag: This is a recommended astrometric reference star, having good
Tycho astrometric quality, and not recognised as double.
Trigonometric parallax: 0.07230 arcsec
1
Standard error of the parallax: 0.00250 arcsec
Proper motion components (epoch J1991.25, ICRS)

0.0032 arcsec
0.0015 arcsec
Number of accepted data points: 115
Goodness-of-fit parameter, F2: 0.83
Hipparcos catalog number: 7513
Astrometric quality flag: 1 (very high).
Signal-to-noise ratio of the star image, Fs: 11.2
Source of astrometric data: Standard data processing.
Photometric Data
Mean Bt magnitude: 4.748
Standard error: 0.004
Mean Vt magnitude: 4.159
Standard error: 0.003
Source of photometric data: The Bt,Vt data are median values, rather than de-censored mean
values (mainly relevant for bright stars with Bt<=8.5 mag and Vt<=8.0 mag).
Johnson B-V colour index: 0.541
Standard error: 0.004
Number of transits used in mean photometry: 115
Vt scatter, s: 0.023 mag
Vt magnitude at maximum luminosity: 4.13
Vt magnitude at minimum luminosity: 4.18
Previously known or suspected variability: None.
Variability of the Tycho measurements: Variability suspected in the Tycho data; this may be due
to intrinsic variability since no correlation with position angle was evident. No thorough
investigation has been carried out to eliminate other reasons intrinsic to the Tycho
measurements.
Unresolved duplicity status: An investigation was carried out on the Tycho data, but no
indication of duplicity was found.
