π2 Gruis, Latinised as Pi2 Gruis, is a binary star [3] system in the southern constellation of Grus. It is faintly visible to the naked eye as a yellow-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.622. [2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 25.1 mas as seen from the Earth, [1] the system is located 130 light years from the Sun.
The primary, component A, is an F-type star of uncertain luminosity class. Malaroda (1975) gave it a stellar classification of F3 III-IV, [4] which would indicate an evolving subgiant/ giant star hybrid spectrum, whereas Houk (1978) listed it as class F0 V, [5] suggesting that it is an F-type main sequence star. It has been considered to be a chemically peculiar star, [10] but this is now considered doubtful. [11] It is 758 [8] million years old with 1.4 [8] times the mass of the Sun. The star is 1.9 [1] times the Sun's radius and is radiating 7 [1] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,788 K. [1]
The companion is a magnitude 11.3 star at an angular separation of 4.6 arc seconds. [3] Gaia Data Release 2 has measured a separate annual parallax for it of 25.3266±0.0871 mas, almost identical to the primary star, and indicates that it is a red dwarf. [12]
