λ2 Fornacis, Latinized as Lambda2 Fornacis, is the primary of a binary star system in the southern constellation of Fornax. It is just visible to the naked eye as a dim, yellow-hued point of light with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.78.[2] It is located 83 light years distant from the Sun, based on stellar parallax,[1] and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +12 km/s.[2]

This object is a G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G1V.[3] It is considered a solar analog, being photometrically-similar to the Sun.[8] The star is an estimated 4.3[4] billion years old with 1.2 times the mass of the Sun and 1.5 times the Sun's radius.[4] It is radiating three[2] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,936 K.[4] The abundance of elements with more mass than helium is 55% higher than in the Sun.[4][9]

There is a faint co-moving companion star located to the east of the main star at an angular separation of 45″. This is most likely an M5–M6 class red dwarf with 0.11 times the Sun's mass. The projected separation between the pair is about 1,000 AU.[6]


Planetary system


Precision Doppler spectroscopy from an intensive 48 night observing campaign on the Anglo-Australian Telescope has revealed the presence of a low-mass extrasolar planet orbiting the star. This object has an orbital period of 17.24 days and an eccentricity of 0.2. It has a minimum (baseline) mass of 21.9 M🜨.[10]
