HD 220105 is astar in the northernconstellation ofAndromeda, and a member of theSirius supercluster.[9] It lies near the lower limit of visibility to the naked eye at anapparent visual magnitude of 6.24, and can be a challenge to spot under normal viewing conditions. The star is located 238 light years away, based upon an annualparallax shift of13.78 mas. It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentricradial velocity of −2 km/s.
This is anA-type main-sequence star with astellar classification of A5 Vn, where the 'n' notation indicates "nebulous"absorption lines due to rapid rotation. It is around 525 million years old with a highprojected rotational velocity of 259 km/s. The star has 1.85 times themass of the Sun and is radiating 19 times theSun's luminosity from itsphotosphere at aneffective temperature of 8,367 K.
HD 220105 has a magnitude 10.13 companion located at anangular separation of13.60″ along aposition angle of 178°, as of 2015,[10] and it is listed as aclose binary by Zorec and Royer (2012).[4] These coordinates are a source forX-ray emission with a luminosity of1.212×1022 W, which is most likely coming from the faint companion.[11]
