HD 31529, also known as HR 1584, is a solitary, orange hued star located in the southern constellation Caelum, the chisel. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.09, [2] making it faintly visible to the naked eye if viewed under ideal conditions. This object is located relatively far at a distance of 932 light years based on parallax measurements from Gaia DR3, [1] but is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 28.4 km/s. [5] Eggen (1989) lists it as a member of the old disk population. [11]
This is an evolved red giant star with a stellar classification of K3 III. It is currently on the red giant branch, generating energy by fusing hydrogen in a shell around its core. It has 4.8 times the mass of the Sun [1] and an enlarged radius of 54.06 R☉ [7] due to its evolved state. It radiates 915 times the luminosity of the Sun [8] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,159 K. [10] HD 31529 is slightly metal deficient (76% solar iron abundance) [11] and spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 2.1 km/s. [12]
