HR 511 (also designatedV987 Cassiopeiae andGliese 75 among others) is anorange dwarf ofspectral type K0V in theconstellationCassiopeia. With anapparent magnitude of 5.63,[2] it is faintly visible to thenaked eye. The star is relatively close, 32.8light-years from theSun.[1]
This star is estimated to be about the same age as the Sun, with 83% of the mass of the Sun and 82% of the Sun's radius. It has not been identified as a member of anymoving star groups. This star has displayed unusual emissions ofCa II and is much morex-ray luminous than the Sun. It is considered a relatively active star.[9] Based on an iron abundance of [Fe/H] = −0.02, themetallicity of this star appears to be similar to that of the Sun.[8]
