HD 195479 , also designated asHR 7839 , is a solitarystar located in the northernconstellation Delphinus , the dolphin. It has anapparent magnitude of 6.20,[ 2] placing it near the limit fornaked eye visibility, even underideal conditions . The object is located relatively close at a distance of 288light-years based onGaia DR3 parallax measurements[ 1] and it is drifting closer with a heliocentricradial velocity of −40.1 km/s .[ 5] At its current distance, HD 195479's brightness is diminished by aninterstellar extinction of 0.27magnitudes [ 14] and it has anabsolute magnitude of +1.53.[ 6]
HD 195479 is anAm star with astellar classification of kA1hA9mF2.[ 3] The notion indicates that it has thecalcium K-lines of an A1 star, thehydrogen lines of an A9 star, and themetallic lines of a F2 star. It has 2.05 times themass of the Sun [ 7] and 2.15 times theradius of the Sun .[ 8] It radiates 38.96 times theluminosity of the Sun [ 1] from itsphotosphere at aneffective temperature of 8,454 K ,[ 10] giving it white hue when viewed in thenight sky . HD 195479 is deficient iniron , having an abundance 77.6% of theSun 's.[ 11] It is estimated to be 631million years old[ 12] and it spins modestly with aprojected rotational velocity of 18.0 km/s ,[ 9] common for Am stars.
The star has two optical companions: a 12th magnitude star designated B located 5.7" away along aposition angle of 88° and a 13th magnitude star designated C located 55.9" away along a position angle of 206°.[ 15] They were both observed by Americanastronomer Sherburne Wesley Burnham during the late 19th century.[ 16] B and C are both background stars that are far more distant than HD 195479.[ 17] [ 18]
