Star in the constellation Columba
HR 2131 (HD 41047 ) is a solitary[ 12] star in the southern constellationColumba . It has anapparent magnitude of 5.52,[ 2] allowing it to be faintly seen with thenaked eye . The object is located at a distance of 670light years [ 1] but is receding with a heliocentricradial velocity of 19 km/s .[ 5]
HR 2131 has astellar classification of K5 III,[ 3] indicating that it is ared giant . It has 1.81 times themass of the Sun and is 2.19billion years old.[ 7] The star's high luminosity of 501 L ☉ [ 7] and a loweffective temperature of 3,700K [ 10] causes it to have an enlarged radius 49 times that of theSun .[ 8] HR 2131'smetallicity – elements heavier thanhelium – is around solar level;[ 10] it spins with aprojected rotational velocity of about 2.6 km/s .[ 11]
