7 Piscium is a single [9] star in the zodiac constellation of Pisces, [8] located around 343 light-years away from the Sun. [1] It has the Bayer designation b Piscium; 7 Piscium is the Flamsteed designation. This object is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.07. [2] It is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of 40 km/s. [1]
This is a metal-deficient giant star [10] with a stellar classification of K1 IV. [3] It is a red clump giant, which indicates it is on the horizontal branch and is generating energy through the fusion of helium at its core. [11] The star is 4.58 billion years old with 1.37 times the mass of the Sun. [7] It has 22 [1] times the Sun's radius and is radiating 163 [1] times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,314 K. [6]
