Stellar Properties
T Cephei is a red giant of spectral type M6-9e with an effective temperature 2,400 K, a radius of 329 R☉, a mass of 0.55 M☉, and a luminosity of 5,700 L☉. If it were in the place of the Sun, its photosphere would at least engulf the orbit of Mars. This star is believed to be in a late stage of its life, blowing off its own sooty atmosphere to form a white dwarf in a distant future.
