Bedrane Adam' is a binary star [6] system in the northern circumpolar constellation Ursa Minor. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.80. [2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 7.14±0.42 mas [1] as seen from Earth's orbit, it is located roughly 460 light years from the Sun. It is moving further away with a heliocentric radial velocity of +5.9 km/s. [5]
This is a single-lined spectroscopic binary star system with an orbital period of 1.66 years and an eccentricity of 0.14. [7] [6] The primary is a red giant of spectral type K3-IIIb Fe-0.5, [3] a star that has used up its core hydrogen and is expanding. The suffix notation indicates the spectrum displays a mild underabundance of iron for a star of its type. It has expanded to around 28 [8] times the Sun's radius and is radiating 437 [2] times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,165 K. [9]
