171 G. Puppis (171 Pup) is a triple[13] star system in the constellation of Puppis – the stern of Argo Navis – of apparent magnitude +5.38. Lacking a Bayer designation, it is instead known by its Gould designation. Based upon parallax measurements, the system is 49.6 light years away from the Solar System.

The inner pair form a spectroscopic binary with an orbital period of around 23 years. The orbit has a semi-major axis of 9.15 AU and a mild eccentricity of 0.443.[9] The primary has a spectral class of F9V,[6] matching a late F-type main-sequence star. However, stellar evolution models suggest it has left the main sequence and is now a subgiant.[5][14] Little is known about the secondary, but its mass should be at least 0.42 M.[9]

There is a common proper motion companion, Van Biesbroeck 3 or WD 0743–340, at an angular separation of 869.65″ along a position angle of 2.81° from the inner pair. This is a white dwarf with a classification of DC11.0 and a temperature of 4,600 K, making it one of the coolest white dwarfs known.[15]

171 G. Puppis is believed to be among the oldest star systems in the solar neighbourhood, being of the Population II. The primary's metal-to-hydrogen ratio is a logarithm of −0.78, translating to 16% of the Sun's abundance.[10] In the early universe, the metallicity of the interstellar medium was much lower than that of the current universe.[16]

Notes

  1. Calculated, using the Stefan-Boltzmann law and the star's effective temperature and luminosity, with respect to the solar nominal effective temperature of 5,772 K:(5,7724,405)4104.2076=0.0135 R.
