HD 177765 is a white-hued star in the southern constellation of Sagittarius. With an apparent magnitude of 9.15, it is too faint to be seen by the naked eye from Earth, but is dimly visible using binoculars. [9] It is located at a distance of 1,284 light-years (394 parsecs) according to Gaia EDR3 parallax measurements.

Description

The star is classified as a rapidly oscillating Ap star (roAp star). It shows super-solar abundances of chromium and strontium as well as many rare-earth elements such as europium and cerium, but is depleted of carbon and nickel. [8] In 2012, the star was found to pulsate with a low radial velocity amplitude of 7150 m/s and a period of 23.6 minutes, the latter being the longest out of any known roAp star at the time. [7] Two additional pulsation frequencies were detected in 2016. [10]

The precise stellar parameters vary from publication to publication, but the star is considered to be part of a group of evolved roAp stars with long pulsation periods, alongside β CrB A and HD 116114. The existence of this group implies a systematic shift of rare-earth emission line anomalies as roAp stars age. [7]

HD 1185 is a double star in the northern constellation of Andromeda. The primary, with an apparent magnitude of 6.15, is a white main-sequence star of spectral type A2VpSi, indicating it has stronger silicon absorption lines than usual, thus making it also an Ap star. The secondary companion, which is 9.08 arcseconds away, is not visible to the naked eye at an apparent magnitude of 9.76. It shares common proper motion and parallax with the primary star but orbital parameters are still unknown.

HD 30442 is a solitary star in the northern circumpolar constellation Camelopardalis. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent magnitude of 5.47 and is estimated to be 403 light years away from the Solar System. The object has a heliocentric radial velocity of −37 km/s, indicating that it is drifting closer.
