SIMBAD data

HD 88231, also known as HR 3993, is a solitary orange-hued star located in the northern constellation Leo Minor. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.84, [2] making it faintly visible to the naked eye under ideal conditions. Gaia DR3 parallax measurements imply a distance of about 569 light-years, [1] and the object is currently receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 7.38  km/s . [7] At its current distance, HD 88231's brightness is diminished by 0.17 magnitudes due to interstellar extinction [14] and it has an absolute magnitude of −0.59. [8]

The object has a stellar classification of K3 III, [4] indicating that it is an evolved red giant star. It has a comparable mass to the Sun [9] but it has expanded to 24.9 times the radius of the Sun. [10] It radiates 228 times the luminosity of the Sun [1] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,487  K . [12] HD 88231 is slightly metal enriched with an iron abundance 112% that of the Sun ([Fe/H] = +0.05). [9]

HD 88231 was suspected to be variable in the K-band based on Two-Micron Sky Survey observations in 1969. [15] A 1994 paper found that it ranges from 5.79 to 5.88 in the visual band. [3] As of 2004 however, the variability has not been confirmed. [16]
