HD 19275

Star in the constellation Cassiopeia


HD 19275 is a single[9] star in the northern constellation of Cassiopeia. It has a white hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.85.[2] The distance to HD 19275 is 163 light years as determined using parallax measurements.[1] It is drifting further away from the Sun with a radial velocity of around 12 km/s.[2]

This object is an A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A2Vnn.[3] The 'nn' suffix indicates "nebulous" (broad) absorption lines in the spectrum due to rapid rotation. It is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 250 km/s, which is giving the star an equatorial bulge that is estimated to be 15% larger than the polar radius.[7] The object is an estimated 71[4] million years old with 1.8[4] times the mass of the Sun and about 2.7[5] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 27[2] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,875 K.[4]
