1 Persei (1 Per) is an eclipsing binary[3] star in the constellation Perseus. Its uneclipsed apparent magnitude is 5.49. The binary star consists of two B2 type main-sequence stars in a 25.9 day eccentric orbit.[5] The stars are surrounded by a faint cloud of gas visible in mid-infrared, although whether they are the origin of the gas or simply passing through it is unclear.

The possible eclipsing binary nature of 1 Persei was first noticed by Donald Kurtz in 1977 when it was used as a comparison star to test for photometric variability of HD 11408.[6] In 1979 French amateur observers succeeded in determining an orbital period of 25.9 days.[7] During the primary eclipse, the brightness drops to magnitude 5.85. In the secondary eclipses, the brightness drops to magnitude 5.74. The eclipses each last for approximately 25 hours.[2]
