27 Aquilae (abbreviated 27 Aql) is a star in the equatorial constellation of Aquila. 27 Aquilae is its Flamsteed designation though it also bears the Bayer designation d Aquilae. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.49,[2] which is faintly visible to the naked eye. Based upon parallax measurements made during the Hipparcos mission, this star is at a distance of 440 light-years (130 parsecs) from Earth, give or take a 20 light-year margin of error.[1] At this distance, the brightness of the star is diminished from extinction caused by interstellar gas and dust.[5]
The spectrum of 27 Aquilae fits a stellar classification of B9 III,[3] with the luminosity class of III typically indicating this is an evolved giant star. As it lies within the field of view of the CoRoT satellite,[10] close observation have been made of its luminosity. The star shows a multiperiodic variability with at least six pulsation frequencies discovered.[11] It has a high rate of rotation with a projected rotational velocity of 55 km/s.[7] The outer atmosphere is radiating energy into space at an effective temperature of around 10,346 K,[6] giving it the blue-white hue of a B-type star.
