HD 20644 is a suspected binary star[6] system in the constellation Aries. It has an orange hue and is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.47.[2] The system is located at a distance of approximately 540 light years from the Sun based on parallax,[1] but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −3 km/s.[2]

The visible component is an aging giant star with a stellar classification of K3IIIa Ba0.5,[3] where the suffix notation indicates this is a mild barium star. The atmosphere of this star is enriched with s-process elements that are posited to have been transferred from what is now a white dwarf companion when it evolved along the asymptotic giant branch (AGB).[8] Alternatively, this star may itself be on the AGB.[9]

HD 20644 is about 350[4] million years old with three[4] times the mass of the Sun and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 1.4 km/s.[6] With the supply of hydrogen at its core exhausted, it has expanded to 75[5] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 1,292[5] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 3,987 K.[5]
