Star in the constellation Tucana
Iota Tucanae (ι Tuc, ι Tucanae) is a solitary[10] star in the southern constellation of Tucana . Based upon an annual parallax shift of 10.72 mas as seen from Earth,[2] light years from the Sun . With an apparent visual magnitude of +5.33,[3]
This is a yellow-hued G-type giant star with a stellar classification of G5 III.[4] semiregular variable star, showing a periodicity of 66.8 days with an amplitude of 0.0202 in visual magnitude.[11] X-ray source with a luminosity of × 1028 erg s−1 [12] [5] mass of the Sun , and, at the age of 1.69 billion years,[5] evolved away from the main sequence , expanding to 11[7] Sun's radius . The star radiates 65[5] solar luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,039 K.[5]
