Star in the constellation Perseus
4 Persei is a single
[10]
star in the northern
constellation of
Perseus , located around 670
light years away from the Sun.
[1] It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, blue-white hued star with an
apparent visual magnitude of 5.04
[2] The
Bayer designation for this star is g Persei ; 4 Persei is the
Flamsteed designation . This object has a
peculiar velocity of 26.3 km/s and may be a
runaway star .
[11]
The
stellar classification for 4 Persei is B8 III,
[3] matching an aging
B-type
giant star that has
evolved off the
main sequence . It is spinning with a
projected rotational velocity of 60 km/s
[8] and has about 3.2
[6] times the
Sun's radius The star is radiating 670
[5] times the
luminosity of the Sun from its
photosphere at an
effective temperature of 12,230 K.
[7] 4 Persei is embedded in a small, relatively dense dust cloud, which is resulting in infrared emission from the cold dust.
