110 Virginis is astar in thezodiacconstellationVirgo, located 195[1]light-years away fromEarth. It is visible to thenaked eye as an orange-hued star with anapparent visual magnitude of 4.40.[2] The star is moving closer to theEarth with a heliocentricradial velocity of −16 km/s.[1]
Thestellar classification of 110 Virginis isK0.5 IIIb Fe–0.5,[4] indicating that this is anevolvedgiant star with a mild underabundance of iron in itsspectrum. At the age of 4.5[2] billion years old, it belongs to a sub-category of giants called thered clump, which means it is on thehorizontal branch and is generating energy through thehelium fusion at itscore.[3] Compared to the Sun, it has 167%[2] of the mass but has expanded to 14 times the size. The enlargedphotosphere has aneffective temperature of 4,655 K and is radiating 80 times the Sun's luminosity.[5]
