Phi Herculis (φ Her) is a binary star[4] system in the northern constellation of Hercules. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 15.99 mas as seen from Earth,[1] it is located around 204 light years from the Sun. With a combined apparent visual magnitude of 4.24,[2] it is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye.

This is a single-lined spectroscopic binary star system with an orbital period of 564.8 days and an eccentricity of 0.526.[7] The primary, component A, is a B-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of B9VspHgMn.[3] It is a chemically peculiar star of the type called a mercury-manganese star.[4] The star is tentatively catalogued as an Alpha2 Canum Venaticorum variable, with brightness variations of just 0.01 magnitudes.[5][12]

The secondary, component B, was first separated via interferometry in 2004.[13] It is an A-type main sequence star of class A8V.[4] The magnitude difference between the two components is 2.64.[13]
