It has 2.01 times the mass of the Sun [7] and a slightly enlarged radius 3.43 times that of the Sun. [8] It radiates 26.29 times the luminosity of the Sun [1] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,919 K . [10] HD 84607 is metal enriched with an iron abundance of [Fe/H] = +0.14 or 138% of the Sun's [11] and it spins fairly quickly with a projected rotational velocity of 93.1 km/s within 1.51 days. [12]
