This is an ordinary F-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of F7V,[3] indicating that the star is hotter and more massive than the Sun, giving it a yellow-white hue. The star is about two[5] billion years old and is chromospherically quiet,[9] with a projected rotational velocity of 14.3 km/s. It has about 1.5[6] times the radius and 1.3[5] times the mass of the Sun. The star is radiating 3.4 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,396 K.[5]
