A faint stellar companion was announced by E. Jódar and associates in 2013. The companion has an angular separation of 521 mas along a position angle of 352.1°±1.4° from the primary. This is equivalent to a projected separation of 7.24±0.14 AU.[9]
Search for planets
According to Marcy & Benitz (1989)[10] detected a possible periodicity of 510 days, inferring the possible presence of a massive planetary object with minimum mass of 12 times that of Jupiter in highly eccentric orbit (e=0.6). So far the planet has not been confirmed. A radial velocity study of the star during the period 2013–2017 initially found a promising signal, but this disappeared when additional data was collected and was instead attributed to magnetic activity.[11]
