HD 193664
HD 193664 is the Henry Draper Catalogue designation for a star in the northern constellation of Draco. With an apparent magnitude of 5.93,[2] according to the Bortle Scale it is visible to the naked eye from suburban skies. Parallax measurements by the Hipparcos spacecraft yield an estimated distance of 57.3 light years.[1] It has a relatively large proper motion of 0.558 arc seconds per year across the sky.[8]

This star is considered a solar analog—meaning that it is photometrically analogous to the Sun—and it displays no significant variability.[9] It is a G-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of G3V.[3] Both the mass and radius of HD 193664 differ from those of the Sun by just a few percent, although it has a somewhat lower metallicity.[4] It may be around the same age as the Sun, being an estimated 3.9 billion years old.[4] The effective temperature of the stellar atmosphere is 5,915 K,[4] giving it the yellow-hued glow of a G-type star.[10]
HD 193664 has been examined for signs of an infrared excess that could indicate the presence of a circumstellar disk of dust, but none has been found (as of 2012).[11] This is member of the thin disk population of stars that lie near the galactic plane.[4]
