19 Aurigae is a single[11] star located approximately 3,800 light years away from the Sun in the northern constellation Auriga. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, white-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.05.[3] The star is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of 4.3 km/s.[3]
This is an evolved A-type bright giant star with a stellar classification of A5 II+.[4] It is a variable star of unknown type that ranges in magnitude from 5.03 down to 5.09.[1] This star is an estimated 36[5] million years old with a projected rotational velocity of 8 km/s.[9] It has 8[5] times the mass of the Sun and about 15[6] times the Sun's radius. 19 Aurigae is radiating 7,057[7] times the total luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,300 K.[8]
