astro.wikisort.org - StarTau2 Arietis, Latinized from τ2 Arietis, is the Bayer designation for a binary star[7] in the northern constellation on Aries. The combined apparent visual magnitude of this system is +5.09,[2] which is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. With an annual parallax shift of 10.27 mas,[1] it is located at a distance of approximately 320 light-years (98 parsecs) from Earth, give or take a 20 light-year margin of error. At this distance the brightness of the star is diminished by 0.18 in magnitude because of extinction from interstellar gas and dust.[8]

The primary component is an evolved giant star with a stellar classification of K3 III.[9] It has expanded to 19 times the radius of the Sun, from which it is radiating 120 times the Sun's luminosity.[4] This energy is being emitted into outer space from the outer atmosphere at an effective temperature of 4,406 K,[4] giving it the cool orange glow of a K-type star. At an angular separation of 0.53 arcseconds is a magnitude 8.50 companion.[7]
