Star in the constellation Eridanus
HD 24160 is a single[ 10] star in the equatorialconstellation ofEridanus . It has theBayer designation g Eridani . It is visible to the naked eye with anapparent visual magnitude of 4.17.[ 1] The distance to HD 24160 can be estimated from its annualparallax shift of 14.98 mas ,[ 2] yielding a separation of 218 light years . It is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentricradial velocity of +2 km/s.[ 5] This object is a coronal member of theUrsa Major Moving Group of stars that share a common motion through space.[ 11]
At the age of 1.76 billion years old, HD 24160 is anevolved G-type giant with astellar classification of G7 III,[ 4] having consumed the hydrogen at itscore and tracked away from themain sequence . It has 2.33[ 6] times themass of the Sun and has expanded to about 11[ 7] times theSun's radius . The star is radiating 81.3[ 6] times theSun's luminosity from its enlargedphotosphere at aneffective temperature of 4,948 K.[ 6]
