Rho Gruis, a Latinization of ρ Gruis, is a solitary [7] star in the southern constellation of Grus. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.85. [2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 14.16 mas as seen from the Earth, [1] the system is located about 230 light years from the Sun. It is drifting further away with a radial velocity of 31 km/s. [5]
This object is an evolved K-type giant star with a stellar classification of K0 III. [3] It has exhausted the supply of hydrogen at its core, causing it to cool and expand. At present it has 12 [5] times the radius of the Sun. With 1.9 times the mass of the Sun [2] it is a red clump star, [2] which indicates it is on the horizontal branch generating energy through helium fusion at its core. It is radiating 67 [5] times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,737 K. [5]
Rho Gruis has two visual companions: a magnitude 14.0 star at an angular separation of 19.3 ″ along a position angle (PA) of 302°, as of 2011, and a magnitude 10.28 star with a separation of 114.20″ and a PA of 336°, as of 1999. [8]
