Lambda1 Tucanae is the
Bayer designation for one member of a pair of stars sharing a
common proper motion through space,
[8] which lie within the southern
constellation of
Tucana . As of 2013, the pair had an
angular separation of 20.0
arc seconds along a
position angle of 82°.
[2] Together, they are barely visible to the naked eye with a combined
apparent visual magnitude of 6.21.
[5] Based upon an annual
parallax shift for both stars of approximately 16.5
[1]
[3]
mas as seen from Earth, this system is located roughly 198
light years from the
Sun .
The brighter member, component A, is a magnitude 6.70
[2]
F-type star with a
stellar classification of F7 IV-V.
[4] The
luminosity class may indicate that, at the age of 2.6 billion years,
[10] it is beginning to
evolve away from the
main sequence . It has an estimated 1.55
[8] times the
mass of the Sun and is radiating 7
[9] times the
solar luminosity from its
photosphere at an
effective temperature of 6,325 K.
[10] The magnitude 7.35
[2] companion, component B, has 1.38
[8] times the mass of the Sun. If the pair are
gravitationally bound , then their estimated
orbital period is 27,000 years.
