Rho2 Arietis is classified as a semiregular variable star with periods of 49.9 and 54.8 days.[12] It varies in visual magnitude between 5.45 and 6.01. It has the variable star designation, RZ Arietis.[3] It is generally considered to be an asymptotic giant branch star, having exhausted its core helium.[13] Based on comparison of its current temperature and luminosity with theoretical evolutionary tracks, its initial mass is estimated to have been 1.3 M☉ and its mass now is 1.14 M☉.[8]
