This is an Am star with a stellar classification of A4 IIIm,[3] matching an evolved A-type giant star. However, Gray & Garrison (1989) found a class of kA5hA7mA7 (IV–V),[4] which matches a blend of subgiant and main sequence luminosity classes with the K-line (kA5) of an A5 star and the hydrogen (hA7) and metal (mA7) absorption lines of an A7 star. It is an Alpha2 Canum Venaticorum-type variable with magnitude ranging from 4.62 down to 4.67 over a period of 14 days.[3] The star is radiating 60[2] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,084 K.[7]
