υ1 Cassiopeiae is the bright star in the lower right. The bright star in the upper left is υ2 Cassiopeiae. Upsilon1 Cassiopeiae (υ1 Cassiopeiae) is anastrometric binary [ 11] constellation ofCassiopeia . It is visible to the naked eye with anapparent visual magnitude of 4.82.[ 3] parallax shift of 9.93 mas as seen from Earth,[ 2] light years from theSun .
The visible component is anevolved K-type giant star with astellar classification of K2 III.[ 5] [ 7] red clump star that is generating energy through the fusion of helium at its core.[ 4] angular diameter , after correction forlimb darkening , is± 0.02 mas [ 12] radius of the Sun .[ 8] mass of the Sun and is radiating 174 times theSun's luminosity from its expandedphotosphere at aneffective temperature of 4,422 K.[ 7]
There is a magnitude 12.50visual companion at anangular separation of 17.80 arc seconds along aposition angle of 61°, as of 2003. A more distant magnitude 12.89 companion lies at a separation of 93.30 arc seconds along a position angle of 125°, as measured in 2003. Neither star appears to be physically associated with υ1 Cas.[ 13]
