Kappa Arietis, Latinized from κ Arietis, is the Bayer designation for a binary star in the northern constellation of Aries. The combined apparent visual magnitude of the pair is 5.02, making the system bright enough for it to be dimly visible to the naked eye as a white-hued point of light. It is located approximately 181 light-years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +11.5 km/s.
32 Aquarii is a binary star system in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius. 32 Aquarii is its Flamsteed designation. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, white-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.29. This system is moving away from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +19 km/s, and is a possible member of the corona of the Ursa Major flow.
64 Arietis is a possible binary star system in the northern constellation of Aries. 64 Arietis is the Flamsteed designation. It is faintly visible to the naked eye as a dim, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of +5.67. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 15.2 mas, this star is approximately 214 light-years distant from the Sun. It is receding from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +8.5 km/s.
62 Arietis is a single star in the northern constellation of Aries, a few degrees to the north of Tau Arietis. 62 Arietis is the Flamsteed designation. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, yellow-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.52. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 4.7±0.1 mas, it is approximately 690 light-years distant from the Earth.
40 Arietis is a probable binary star system in the northern constellation of Aries. 40 Arietis is the Flamsteed designation. Their combined apparent magnitude is 5.82, putting the system near the limit of naked eye visibility. Based upon an annual parallax shift of just 7.33 mas, it is 445 light-years away from the Sun. At that distance, its brightness is diminished by 0.21 in magnitude from extinction caused by interstellar gas and dust.
7 Arietis is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Aries. 7 Arietis is the Flamsteed designation. The pair have a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.76, making it faintly visible to the naked eye from dark suburban skies. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 5.39 mas, it is approximately 600 light-years distant from the Earth, give or take a 30 light-year margin of error. It is drifting further away from the Sun with a radial velocity of +16 km/s.
30 Arietis is a 6th-apparent-magnitude multiple star system in the constellation of Aries. 30 Arietis is the Flamsteed designation. 30 Arietis A and B are separated by 38.1″ or about 1,500 AU at a distance of 130 light years away. The main components of both systems are both binaries with a composite spectra belonging to F-type main-sequence stars, meaning they are fusing hydrogen in their cores. The 30 Arietis system is 910 million years old, one fifth the age of the Sun.
Nu2 Boötis is a white-hued binary star system in the northern constellation of Boötes. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.02. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 7.86 mas as seen from the Earth, it is located roughly 415 light years from the Sun. The system is moving closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of −16.6 km/s.
39 Cancri is a star in the constellation Cancer, located about 614 light years from the Sun in the Beehive Cluster. It is a challenge to see with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 6.39. This object is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of 34 km/s.
22 Camelopardalis is a binary star system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Camelopardalis, located 212 light years away from the Sun. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 7.03, which is below the normal limit for visibility with the naked eye. This object is moving further from the Earth with a mean heliocentric radial velocity of +10 km/s. Eggen (1991) listed it as a member of the IC 2391 supercluster. It has also been catalogued as a member of the Hyades group. However, Griffin (2005) suggests it belongs to neither.
Tau Puppis, Latinized from τ Puppis, is a star in the southern constellation of Puppis, near the southern constellation boundary with Carina. It is visible to the naked with an apparent visual magnitude of +2.95 and is located at a distance of about 182 light-years from Earth. The variable radial velocity of this system was detected by H. D. Curtis and H. K. Palmer in 1908, based on observations made at the D. O. Mills Observatory. It is a spectroscopic binary star system, with the presence of the secondary component being revealed by the shifts of absorption lines in the spectrum resulting from the Doppler effect. The two components orbit each other with a period of 1,066.0 days and a low eccentricity of 0.090.
29 Arietis is a triple star system in the northern constellation of Aries. 29 Arietis is the Flamsteed designation. Its annual parallax shift of 34.86±0.13 mas indicates a distance of about 94 light-years from Earth. The system is barely visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 6.0; it is 0.02 degree north of the ecliptic. It is moving further from Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of 9 km/s.
HD 29587 is a Sun-like star with a candidate brown dwarf companion in the northern constellation of Perseus. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 7.29, which means it is too faint to be viewed with the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 36.3 mas, it is located 89.8 light years away. The star is moving away from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +113 km/s, having come to within 55.8 ly some 148,000 years ago. It is a hyper-velocity halo star moving at a rate of 170 km/s relative to the local standard of rest.
HD 175535 is a binary star system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Draco. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 4.92, which is bright enough to be faintly visible to the naked eye. The system is located about 302 light years away, as determined from its annual parallax shift of 10.8 mas. It is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +8.5 km/s.
81 Geminorum is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Gemini. It has the Bayer designation g Geminorum, while 81 Geminorum is its Flamsteed designation. This system is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued point of light with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.89. The pair are located approximately 360 light years away from the Sun, based on parallax, and are moving further away with a radial velocity of +83 km/s, having come to within an estimated 164 light-years of the Earth nearly a million years ago. 81 Geminorum lies close enough to the ecliptic to undergo lunar occultations.
HD 106515 is a binary star in the constellation of Virgo.
AX Circini is a binary star system in the southern constellation of Circinus. It has a nominal magnitude of 5.91, which is bright enough to be visible to the naked eye.
