Star in the constellation of Camelopardalis
HD 31134 , also designated asHR 1561 , is a solitarystar [ 14] located in the northerncircumpolar constellation Camelopardalis , the giraffe. It is faintly visible to thenaked eye as a white-hued star with anapparent magnitude of 5.74.[ 3] Gaia DR3 parallax measurements place it 473light years away.[ 2] It appears to be approaching theSolar System with a heliocentricradial velocity of −15.1 km/s .[ 7] At its current distance, HD 31134's brightness is diminished by 0.35magnitudes due tointerstellar dust .[ 15] It has anabsolute magnitude of +0.19.[ 1]
The object has astellar classification of A2 Vs,[ 5] indicating that it is anA-type main-sequence star with sharp or narrowabsorption lines due to slow rotation. Two sources remove thes prefix and instead list it as an ordinary dwarf star[ 16] [ 17] while one lists it as a moreevolved giant star .[ 18] Abt and Morell (1995) list it as a slightly hotter peculiarAp star ,[ 6] but it is now considered unlikely to be chemically peculiar.[ 19] It has 2.74 times themass of the Sun and an enlargedradius of 4.38 R ☉ .[ 8] It radiates 103 times theluminosity of the Sun [ 4] from itsphotosphere at aneffective temperature of 8,690 K .[ 9] HD 31134 is a rather evolved star, having completed 97.6% of itsmain sequence lifetime[ 4] at the age of 432million years .[ 12] Consistent with its spectrum, it spins modestly with aprojected rotational velocity of 60 km/s .[ 11]
