HD 27274, also known as Gliese 167, is a solitary, [11] orange hued star located in the southern constellation Dorado. It has an apparent magnitude of 7.63, [2] making it readily visible in binoculars, but not to the naked eye. Based on parallax measurements from the Gaia spacecraft, the star is known to be located 42.5 light-years (13.02 parsecs) away from the Solar System [1] However, it is drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −23 km/s . At its current distance, HD 27274 is dimmed down by 0.05 magnitudes due to interstellar dust. [12]
HD 27274 has a stellar classification of K4.5 Vk:, [3] indicating that it is a K-type main-sequence star with interstellar absorption features. However, there is uncertainty behind the classification. At present it has 73% the mass of the Sun and 70% of its radius. [6] It has an effective temperature of 4,602 K , [7] but its small size yields a luminosity only 19.6% that of the Sun. [1] HD 27274 is metal enriched, having an iron abundance 44.6% above solar levels. [7] The star spins with a projected rotational velocity of 1 km/s , [8] and is estimated to be 4.5 billion years old. [9] This is similar to the Sun's current age (4.6 Gyr).
