14 Trianguli (14 Tri), also known as HD 15656, is a spectroscopic binary [14] located in the northern constellation Triangulum. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.14, [2] making it faintly visible to the naked eye in ideal conditions. Gaia DR3 parallax measurements place the system 433 light years away, [1] and it is currently approaching the Solar System with a heliocentric radial velocity of −37  km/s . [5] At its current distance, 14 Tri's brightness is diminished by 0.21 magnitude due to interstellar dust. [15] It has an absolute magnitude of −0.46. [6]

The visible component is an evolved red giant with a stellar classification of K5 III. It has 1.85 times the mass of the Sun, [8] but it has expanded to 39 times its girth. It radiates 325 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 3,991  K , [9] giving it an orangish-red hue. 14 Tri is slightly metal-deficient with [Fe/H] = −0.16, [11] and spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 2.1  km/s . [12] This is a single-lined spectroscopic binary that completes an eccentric orbit within 17 years. The secondary star has not been detected visually or in the spectrum and is expected to be a low-mass red dwarf or white dwarf. [7] 14 Tri may be part of the Wolf 630 moving group. [16]
