HD 41004

HD 41004 is a visual binary[4] star system in the southern constellation of Pictor. It is too faint to be visible to the naked eye, having a combined apparent visual magnitude of 8.65.[2] The two components have a magnitude difference of 3.7, and share a common proper motion[4] with an angular separation of 0.30″, as of 2018.[3] The distance to this system is approximately 136 light years based on parallax.[1] It is drifting further away from the Sun with a radial velocity of +42.5 km/s, having come to within 44.5 ly some 831,000 years ago.[2]

The primary, component A, is a K-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of K1V[4] and a visual magnitude of 8.82.[3] Torres et al. (2006) classed it as a K1IV star,[6] suggesting it is a subgiant star that is evolving off the main sequence. It has 89%[4] of the mass of the Sun and 104%[1] of the Sun's radius. The star is radiating 63%[1] of the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,255 K.[4] Its smaller companion, designated component B, is a red dwarf with spectral type M2V[4] and apparent magnitude 12.33. It has a projected separation of 23 AU from the primary.[4]

Companions

In 2003 a planet HD 41004 Ab was first discovered by Zucker et al., but not published until 2004. It has a mass >2.56 times that of Jupiter. It orbits the primary star at a separation of 1.70 astronomical units, taking 2.64 years with a high eccentricity of 0.74.

    HD 41004 Bb is a brown dwarf that at the time of the discovery was orbiting closer to the secondary star than any known extrasolar planet or brown dwarf (a=0.0177 AU), at only 145 km/s, because of its low-mass parent star, taking 1.3 days. Its orbit is circular despite the gravitational effect of HD 41004 A because of the tidal effect of the nearby star HD 41004 B.[8]

    gollark: It will install potatOS on your brain, and not in a nice way.
    gollark: That is your enemy.
    gollark: That is not your friend.
    gollark: Oh, cool idea. You know how there are those things to virtualize peripherals or whatever? Run Disknet over that. This has no problems whatsoever
    gollark: Hmm.
