HD 164427
Star in the constellation Pavo / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
HD 164427 is a star with a likely red dwarf companion in the southern constellation of Pavo. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 6.88,[2] placing it just below the nominal limit for visibility with the typical naked eye. The annual parallax shift of 23.5 mas[1] yields a distance estimate of 139 light-years (43 parsecs). It is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +3.4 km/s.[1]

This is an inactive[7] G-type main-sequence star given a stellar classification of G0+V by Gray et al. (2006),[3] although Evans et al. (1964) classified it as a subgiant star with luminosity class IV.[7] It is 6.6 billion years old with 1.125 times the mass of the Sun and 1.40 times the Sun's radius.[8] The star is somewhat over-luminous for its class,[7] radiating 2.33[2] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,876 K.[3]
