Chi1 Fornacis, Latinised from χ1 Fornacis is a solitary white-hued star located in the southern constellation Fornax. Its barley visible to the naked eye with an apparent magnitude of 6.39, [2] which is near the limit for naked eye visibility. Gaia DR3 parallax measurements imply a distance of 339 light-years [1] and it is currently drifitng away with a heliocentric radial velocity of 19.0  km/s. [6] At its current distance, Chi1 Fornacis' brightness is diminshed by an interstellar extinction of 0.08 magnitudes [15] and it has an absolute magnitude of +1.42. [7]

Chi1 Fornacis has a stellar classification of A1 IV, [4] indicating that it is a slightly evolved A-type star that is ceasing hydrogen fusion at its core. Alternatively, it has been given a class of A1 Vbn, [16] indicating that it is instead a slightly less luminous A-type main-sequence star with broad or nebulous absorption lines due to rapid rotation. It has 2.05 times the mass of the Sun [8] and 2.20 times the radius of the Sun. [9] It radiates 31.24 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,870  K. [3] Chi1 Fornacis has a solar metallicity [8] and it is estimated to be only 5.5 million years old. [12] It spins rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 136  km/s. [11]

It is the brightest star and titular member in the χ1 Fornacis cluster, a star cluster around 104 parsecs from Earth. [17]

χ1 Fornacis cluster

The χ1 Fornacis cluster, or Alessi 13, [18] is one of the four star clusters known within 110 parsecs from Earth. [17] Despite its closeness, the χ1 Fornacis cluster has barely been studied. Its age is 40 million years and its distance is 104 parsecs. [17] The χ1 Fornacis cluster appears to be closely related to the Tucana–Horologium and Columba associations. [17] A remarkable, unprecedented aspect of the cluster is the large percentage of M-type stars with warm excess infrared emission due to orbiting dust grains. [17]
