56 Aquarii, abbreviated 56 Aqr, is a star in the constellation of Aquarius. 56 Aquarii is its Flamsteed designation. It is a sixth magnitude star, having an apparent visual magnitude of 6.36,[2] and thus is a challenge to view with the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 5.07 mas,[1] it is located around 643 light years from the Earth. At that distance, the visual magnitude is diminished by an extinction of 0.12 due to interstellar dust.[7] The star is moving closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −28 km/s.[5] It is a candidate runaway star showing a transverse peculiar velocity of 213.87 km/s.[9]

Houk and Smith-Moore (1978) gave this star a stellar classification of B8 II,[4] matching a B-type bright giant. In contrast, Cowley et al. (1969) found a class of B8 Vs,[10] corresponding to a B-type main-sequence star with narrow ("sharp") absorption lines due to a relatively low projected rotation. Zorec and Royer (2012) modeled it as a dwarf star that is 67% of the way through its main sequence lifespan. It is a chemically peculiar mercury-manganese star, showing abnormally strong absorption lines of mercury and magnesium with weak lines of helium.[11] The star has 3.4[3] times the mass of the Sun and about 2.8[6] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 185[3] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 11,912 K.[3]
