19 Aquilae is a single [12] star located 142 light-years (44 parsecs ) away from the Sun in the equatorial constellation of Aquila. 19 Aquilae is the Flamsteed designation. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, yellow-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.23. [2] The star is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −46.7 km/s. [7]

This object has a stellar classification of F0 III-IV, [3] with the luminosity class matching an evolving star transitioning from the subgiant to a giant stage. Poretti et al. (2003) list it as a suspected Gamma Doradus variable, and it is located near the cooler end of the instability strip on the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram. [6] These spatial coordinates are a source of X-ray emission, which is most likely coming from the star. [13]

19 Aquilae is an estimated 2.25 [9]  billion years old with a moderately high rate of spin, showing a projected rotational velocity of 57.0 km/s. [10] It has 1.54 [9] times the mass of the Sun and 2.50 [1] times the Sun's radius. The star is radiating 12.8 [1] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,784 K. [9]

Lambda Aquilae, Latinized from λ Aquilae, is a star in the constellation Aquila. It has the traditional name Al Thalimain, which it shares with ι Aquilae. The name is derived from the Arabic الظلیمينal-ẓalīmayn "the two ostriches". Lambda Aquilae is more precisely Al Thalimain Prior. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 3.43, which is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. Parallax measurements place it at a distance of about 125 light-years from Earth.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Phi Aquilae</span> Binary star system in the constellation Aquila

Phi Aquilae, Latinized from φ Aquilae, is the Bayer designation of a binary star system in the equatorial constellation of Aquila. It has an apparent visual magnitude of +5.28 and is visible to the naked eye. With an annual parallax shift of 14.198 mas, this star is located at a distance of approximately 230 light-years from Earth. It is drifting closer with a radial velocity of –27 km/s. Based on its motion through space, this system is considered a possible member of the nearby Argus association of co-moving stars, although it may be too old.
