HD 201772, also known as HR 8104, is a yellowish-white hued star located in the southern constellation of Microscopium. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.26, [3] making it one of the brighter members of this generally faint constellation. The object is located relatively close at a distance of 111 light-years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements [2] but is approaching closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −41  km/s . [6] At its current distance, HD 201772's brightness is diminished by 0.11 magnitudes due to interstellar dust. [14]

The star has been given multiple stellar classifications over the years. It was given the luminosity class of a subgiant and main sequence star (IV/V; IV-V) [15] [4] and a dwarf (V). [16] [17] Most sources generally agree that it is a F5 star. Richard O. Gray and colleagues give HD 201772 a class of F6 V Fe−0.9 CH−0.5, which indicates that it is a F-type main-sequence star with an underabundance of iron and CH molecules in its spectrum. [5]

It has 1.47 times the mass of the Sun [18] and an enlarged radius of 2.2  R. [7] It radiates 7.8 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,519  K . [9] At an age of 2.5 billion years, HD 201722 is currently 1.33 magnitudes above the ZAMS, consistent with a star that is evolving off the main sequence. [11] The star has an iron abundance 66% that of the Sun, [10] making it metal deficient. It spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 10  km/s . [11]

HD 201772 is suspected to be a spectroscopic binary consisting of the subgiant described above and an ordinary F6 V star with a mass of 1.31  M. [19] However, the stars have no separation or an orbital period. [20] This is because the companion might be a result of spectrum contamination, so HD 201772 is more likely to be a solitary star. [21]
