17 Persei
Star in the constellation Perseus
17 Persei is a single[ 11] star in the northern constellation of Perseus , located about 420 light years away from the Sun. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.53.[ 2] This object is moving further from the Earth at a heliocentric radial velocity of +13 km/s.[ 5]
Based upon a stellar classification of K5+III,[ 3] this is an evolved giant star that has exhausted the hydrogen at its core . It is a suspected variable star , with an amplitude of 0.012 magnitude and period 4.4 days.[ 4] [ 12] The star has 1.1 times the mass of the Sun [ 7] and has expanded to 60 times the Sun's radius . It is radiating 848 times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,014 K.[ 8]
