QZ Puppis (QZ Pup, b Pup) is a class B2.5V (blue main-sequence) star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.5 and it is approximately 650 light years away based on parallax.
QZ Puppis was identified as a small-amplitude variable star in 1974, but the nature of the variability was unclear. It was thought to be a spectroscopic binary on the basis of variability in the radial velocity of its spectral lines.[12] As a hot B-class main sequence star with variable spectral lines, it was suspected of being a β Cephei variable but this classification was repeatedly rejected.[13] The short-period sinusoidal variations in brightness with an amplitude of 0.03 magnitudes were interpreted as ellipsoidal variations as the star, distorted by a close companion, rotates with a period of 1.1 days.[12] Later analysis of Hipparcos photometry detected shallow eclipses.[14]
The companion to QZ Puppis is only known from its effect on the visible star as they orbit. The primary shows radial velocity variations of 71km/s as it orbits every 1.112 days.
