HR 8526, also known as HD 212168, is the primary of a triple star located in the southern circumpolar constellation Octans. The star and its companion have apparent magnitudes of 6.12 and 9.36 respectively. [2] [4] The system is located relatively close at a distance of 76 light years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements, [3] [1] but is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 15 km/s . [8] [9]
This is a Sun-like star with a stellar classification of G0 V. [5] It has 105% the mass of the Sun [12] and 117% its girth. [13] It radiates 157% the luminosity of the Sun [14] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,935 K , [15] giving it a whitish-yellow hue. HR 8526 has an iron abundance similar to the Sun's [12] and spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 3.6 km/s . [16] HD 212168 has a similar age to the Sun; the former is 4.7 billion years old [17] while the latter is 4.6 billion years old.
The B subsystem is located 14″ away along a position angle of 78°. [21] It has a combined mass 76% that of the Sun [18] and take roughly 11 years to orbit each other. [11] Spectral classifications for this star vary from G0-V to K2V. [7] [22] The G0 class has been used as an argument that the two visible components form a purely optical pair, [23] but this has been dismissed as mis-identification or contamination and that the actual spectral class is early or mid K. [10]
