10 Boötis is a suspected astrometric binary[8] star system in the northern constellation of Boötes,[7] located around 528 light years away from the Sun. It is visible to the naked eye under suitable viewing conditions as a dim, white-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.76.[2] Its magnitude is diminished by an extinction of 0.17 due to interstellar dust.[9] This system is moving away from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +6 km/s.[5]

The visible component is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A0 Vs,[4] where the 's' notation indicates "sharp" absorption lines. It is 337[2] million years old with a moderate rotation rate, showing a projected rotational velocity of 75 km/s.[3] The star has 2.87[3] times the mass of the Sun and about 2.7[6] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 113[3] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,441 K.[3]
