The primary star is an A-type main-sequence star with a spectral class of A2V and an apparent magnitude of 6.1, just visible to the naked eye om ideal conditions. The 10th-magnitude companion lies at an angular separation of 4.6 along a position angle of 110° (as of 2010).[9]

The A-type star is over twice as massive as the Sun and over 40 times as luminous. It has an effective temperature of 9,434 K.[2] The fainter secondary has only 80% of the Sun's mass and 40% of its luminosity and its photosphere is at a temperature of 5,099 K.[4]
