HD 102350 is a single [9] star in the constellation Centaurus. It has a yellow hue and is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.11. [2] The distance to this star is approximately 390 light years based on parallax, but it is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −3 km/s. [2] It has an absolute magnitude of −1.51. [6]
This is an aging bright giant star with a stellar classification of G0II. [3] It is a candidate Cepheid variable, [5] but Hipparcos photometry found its brightness to be constant. [10] The star has expanded to 22 [7] times the radius of the Sun and is radiating 283 [7] times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,051 K. [7] It has a magnitude 13.0 visual companion at an angular separation of 24.3 ″ along a position angle of 313° relative to the brighter component, as of 2000. [11]
HD 102350 is listed in the Washington Double Star Catalog as having a 13th magnitude companion about 25 ″ away, [12] but it is a distant background object unrelated to HD 102350. [13] [9]
