b3 Hydrae (6 Crateris) is a star in the constellation Hydra at a distance of approximately 98 light-years (about 30 parsecs) from the Sun. It has three optical companions, which are background stars located much farther away.

Description

[edit]

b3 Hydrae (WDS J10535-2008A) is a yellow-white main sequence star with the spectral type of F5V. The apparent magnitude of the star is +5.232. It has about 1.5 M, its radius is about 1.9 R and the luminosity is about 6.0 L. The age of the star is determined to be about 1.647 billion years.[4] The effective temperature is about 6,505 K.

Optical companions

BD−19 3124

[edit]

The secondary (BD−19 3124) is a yellow main sequence star of spectral type G5.[9] The apparent magnitude of the star is +9.6.[10] The mass is about 1.492 ± 0.001 M[11], the radius is about 2.071 ± 0.008 R[11], the luminosity is about 6.946 ± 0.001 L[11]. The effective temperature is about 6,566±1 K[11]. It is 119.6 arcseconds away from b3 Hydrae[12] and about 774 light-years (237 parsecs) away from the Solar System.[11]

UCAC2 23866861

[edit]

The third component (UCAC2 23866861) is a yellow dwarf of spectral type G.[citation needed] The apparent magnitude of the star is +11.6.[13] The mass is about 0.989 ± 0.001 M[14], the radius is about 1.315 ± 0.002 R[14], the luminosity is about 1.662 ± 0.001 L[14]. The effective temperature is about 5,761±4 K[14]. It is separated from BD−19 3124 by 13.7 arc seconds[12] and is about 850 light-years (260 parsecs) away from the Solar System.[14]

UCAC2 23866855

[edit]

The fourth component (UCAC2 23866855) is a yellow-white star of spectral type F.[citation needed] The apparent magnitude of the star is +13.5.[15] The mass is about 1.332 ± 0.001 M[16] the radius is about 1.829 ± 0.005 R[16] the luminosity is about 4.356 ± 0.001 L[16] the effective temperature is about 6,236±1 K[16]. It is located 40.5 arc seconds away from BD−19 3124[12] and is about 3,820 light-years (1,170 parsecs) away from the Solar System.[16]
