13 Trianguli is the Flamsteed designation for a star in the northern constellation of Triangulum. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.89, [2] so according to the Bortle scale it is faintly visible from dark suburban skies. The star is located at a distance of 103 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, [1] and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +41 km/s. [4] It made a close approach to the Sun some 665,000 years ago at an estimated separation of 34.3 light-years. [2]
A stellar classification of G0 V [2] indicates this is a main sequence star that is generating energy by fusing hydrogen into helium at its core. It has about 110% of the Sun's mass, 186% of the Sun's radius, and shines with 3.72 times the luminosity of the Sun. The stellar atmosphere has an effective temperature of 5,846 K, [5] giving it the yellow hue of a G-type star. [8] It appears to be older than the Sun, with an estimated age of 6.45 billion years. [5]
In 1994, an astrometric companion was reported at an angular separation of 0.020″. However, follow-up observations reported in 2005 not only failed to recover this object but also returned a null result on a search for planetary companions. [9] The star has been examined for an infrared excess that could indicate the presence of an orbiting debris disk, but no such excess was found. [6]
