This system was found to be a spectroscopic binary by the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory in 1923. It was then shown to be a triple star system in 1937 by William E. Harper and Guy H. Blanchet.[8] The inner pair have an orbital period of 101.6 days and an eccentricity of 0.117, with the primary forming the visible component of this pair. The third component forms a visual system with the inner pair, orbiting with a period of 9.27 years and an eccentricity of 0.073.[5][9]
The primary component appears to be an aging giant star with a stellar classification of F4III,[4] although it has also been classed as a G-type main-sequence star of type G0V.[3] It is around a billion years old with twice the mass of the Sun.[6] The star has expanded to 17[1] times the Sun's radius and is radiating 236[1] times the luminosity of the Sun at an effective temperature of 5,488 K.[1] It is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 25.3 km/s.[6]
