Eta Cassiopeiae (η Cas / η Cassiopeiae) is a Star System 19.4 Light Year s away from Earth , in the constellation Cassiopeia . Sometimes the traditional name '''Achird''' is used. The primary star in the η Cassiopeiae system is a yellow Dwarf (main sequence) star of Spectral Type G3 V, putting it in the same spectral class as our Sun , which is of spectral type G2 V. It therefore resembles what our Sun might look like if we were to observe it from η Cassiopeiae. The star is of Apparent Magnitude 3.45. The star has a cooler and dimmer (magnitude 7.51) orange dwarf companion of spectral type K7 V. There are six dimmer Optical Components reported. However, none of them are related to the η Cassiopeiae system and are in reality more distant stars. EXTERNAL LINKS |
