HD 220689 is a single [8] star in the equatorial constellation of Aquarius. It is a challenge to view with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of +7.74, [2] but is readily viewed with a pair of binoculars. [9] The star is located at a distance of 153 light years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +12 km/s. [1] A survey in 2015 has ruled out the existence of any additional stellar companions at projected distances from 26 to 305 astronomical units. [8]
The stellar classification of HD 220689 is G3V, [3] matching a yellow hued G-type main-sequence star that is generating energy through core hydrogen fusion. It is roughly 4.6 billion years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 5.5 km/s, [6] giving it a rotation period of around 29 days. [4] The star has a similar size, mass, and elemental abundances as the Sun. It is radiating 1.5 [5] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,921 K. [4]
From 1998 to 2012, the star was under observation from the CORALIE echelle spectrograph at La Silla Observatory. In 2012, a long-period, wide-orbiting exoplanet was deduced from radial velocity variations. This was published in November. [10] The maximum orbital period allowing for dynamic stability of a hypothetical inner planet is 3.9 years. [4] In 2023, the inclination and true mass of HD 220689 b were determined via astrometry.
