Gliese 569 is a star in the constellation Boötes. It is orbited by a pair of brown dwarfs. The system lies 32.45 light years away.
System
The primary star GJ 569A is orbited by the much fainter (3.7 magnitudes) secondary GJ 659B at a projected separation of 5.92 arcseconds, discovered in 1988.[13] The star GJ 569B (BD+16 2708B) itself is a close binary system of two high-mass brown dwarfs in a 2.4-year orbit,[14] and a small (0.538±0.048) magnitude difference between components.[15] The orbital plane of close binary GJ 569Ba and GJ 569Bb is expected to precess at timescales of about 100 thousand years due to the gravitational influence of GJ 569A.[6]
Properties
The primary star Gliese 569A is a flare star.[1] The star was given its variable star designation, CE Boötis, in 1975.[16] The nature of the brown dwarf binary Gliese 569B is highly uncertain, and it was even suspected Gliese 569Ba itself may be either a low-mass star or a binary object. But with a mass about 8-9% that of the Sun means it may possibly be a binary of two extremely low mass ultra-cool dwarf stars that are extremely dim, dim enough to look like a brown dwarf.[7] Both brown dwarfs are weakly variable, likely due to starspot activity.[14]
