HR 4339 is a single[9]star in theequatorialconstellation ofHydra. It was designated asBeta Antliae byLacaille, andGould intended to keep it in that constellation. However, the delineating of constellation boundaries by theIAU in 1930 saw it transferred to Hydra.[7] It has a white hue and is just visible to the naked eye with anapparent visual magnitude of 5.79.[1] The distance to this star, as determined fromparallax measurements, is approximately 366 light years.[2] It is drifting further away with aradial velocity of +1.3 km/s.[1]
This object is anA-type main-sequence star with astellar classification of A1V.[4] It is a suspectedvariable star of unknown type and magnitude.[10] The star has 2.6 times themass of the Sun[3] and it is spinning with aprojected rotational velocity of 73 km/s.[3] It is radiating around 72 times theluminosity of the Sun from itsphotosphere at aneffective temperature of 9,120 K.[3]
