Epsilon Cancri is a white-hued multiple star system in the zodiac constellation of Cancer. Its name is a Bayer designation that is Latinized from ε Cancri, and abbreviated Epsilon Cnc or ε Cnc. This is the brightest member of the Beehive Cluster (or Praesepe)[12] with an apparent visual magnitude of +6.29,[2] which is near the lower limit of visibility with the naked eye. The annual parallax shift of 5.4 mas as seen from Earth yields a distance estimate of approximately 606 light-years (186 pc) from the Sun. The system is moving away from the Sun with a radial velocity of +30 km/s.[10]
The outer pair has the designation WDS J08405+1933. The primary star is designated Epsilon Cancri and the secondary is HD 73711. Epsilon Cancri is itself a spectroscopic binary with components designated Aa (also named Meleph[13]) and Ab. HD 73711 is also suspected of being a spectroscopic binary.[14]
Nomenclature

ε Cancri (Latinised to Epsilon Cancri) is the system's Bayer designation, which originally referred to the entire Beehive Cluster.[15] In his Uranometria, Bayer cited (among others) the name Melleff or Meeleph for the cluster, from Arabic Al Ma'laf, the Stall;[16] as Meleph, this name is also now applied specifically to this star.[17]
In 2016, the IAU organized a Working Group on Star Names (WGSN)[18] to catalog and standardize proper names for stars. The WGSN decided to attribute proper names to individual stars rather than entire multiple systems.[19] It approved the name Meleph for the component Epsilon Cancri Aa on 5 September 2017 and it is now so included in the List of IAU-approved Star Names.[13]
Properties
Epsilon Cancri A is a double-lined spectroscopic binary system with an orbital period of 35.14 days and eccentricity of 0.42.[11] It has a stellar classification of A5 III,[5] which matches an A-type giant star. The spectrum displays the chemically peculiar characteristics of an Am star.[20] Its spectral type has been listed as kA3hA5mF0, indicating the different spectral types shown by spectral lines of calcium, hydrogen, and other metals.[6] Despite the spectral classification, evolutionary models suggest that the star is still on the main sequence, although at the very end of its hydrogen-burning life.[1] The age of the system is estimated to be around 637 million years.[11]
HD 73711 is another Am star, given a stellar classification of F0 III on the basis of its hydrogen absorption lines but a more complete classification of kA3hA5mF0. Although the spectral class would indicate that the star is a giant, models suggest that it is still fusing hydrogen in its core.[3]

This template does not display in the mobile view of Wikipedia; it is desktop only. See Template:Navbox visibility for a brief explanation. This is a navigational template created using {{navbox}}. It can be transcluded on pages by placing
{{Epsilon Cancri}}below the standard article appendices.Initial visibility
This template's initial visibility currently defaults to
autocollapse, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible.To change this template's initial visibility, the
|state=parameter may be used:{{Epsilon Cancri|state=collapsed}}will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar.{{Epsilon Cancri|state=expanded}}will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
Templates using the classes
class=navbox({{navbox}}) orclass=nomobile({{sidebar}}) are not displayed in article space on the mobile web site of English Wikipedia. Mobile page views accounted for 60% to 70% of all page views from 2020 through 2025. Briefly, these templates are not included in articles because 1) they are not well designed for mobile, and 2) they significantly increase page sizes—bad for mobile downloads—in a way that is not useful for the mobile use case. You can review/watch phab:T124168 for further discussion.TemplateData
