CD-73°375 is a binary star located in the constellation Volans about 820 light years away. The two components, HR 2979 and HR 2980, are separated by two arc-seconds. The pair has a combined apparent magnitude of 6.34. It has a radial velocity of about 13 km/s, which means it drifting away from the Solar System.

Properties

[edit]

The two stars making up CD-73°375 are both B9 subgiants with almost identical properties. HR 2979 is generally designated as the primary because of its higher mass, although HR 2980 is marginally brighter at magnitude 7.02. They are 1.9 apart and have an assumed orbit of 3,760 years.[9]

Each star has a mass about three and a half times the Sun's and a temperature of about 13,000 K.
