4 Arietis is a single [9] star in the northern constellation of Aries, the ram. 4 Arietis is the Flamsteed designation. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, blue-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.86. [2] The star has an annual parallax shift of 11.46±0.15 mas, [1] which is equivalent to a distance of 285 light-years (87 parsecs) from the Sun. It is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +6 km/s. [5]
This is a B-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of B9.5 V. [4] It is 257 [6] million years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 33 [6] km/s. The star has more than double the mass of the Sun and around 2.2 [7] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 40 [3] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,913 K. [6]
