Gliese 318 is a white dwarf in the constellation Pyxis. Its spectral type is DA5.5 and it has a visual magnitude of 11.85, [2] and lies 27.8 light-years (8.5 parsecs) away. [6] The star was too faint to have had its parallax measured by the Hipparcos satellite. Earth-based measurement in 2009 gave its parallax as 113.63 ± 1.97 milliarcseconds, yielding a distance of 28.7 ± 0.5 light-years; [5] this parallax measurement has since been substantially improved by Gaia. It is around 45% as massive as the Sun but has only 0.15% its luminosity. [5]
Bragaglia et al. suspect this star to be a double white dwarf due to strong spectral line variations. [7] From Gaia DR2 it was not possible to confirm this claim. It is still possible that Gliese 318 is a double white dwarf and additional spectroscopic observations are needed in order to confirm this claim. [8] Gliese 318 could be the closest double white dwarf to earth. [9] [10]
