HD 124099 (HR 5306; NSV 20066; 7 G. Apodis) is a solitary orange-hued star located in the southern circumpolar constellation Apus. It has an average apparent magnitude of 6.47,[2] placing it very close to the limit for naked eye visibility, even under ideal conditions. The object is located relatively far at a distance of approximately 2,030 light-years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements,[1] but it is drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −10.2 km/s.[7] At its current distance, HD 124099's average brightness is diminished by 0.47 magnitudes due to interstellar extinction[15] and it has an absolute magnitude of −2.10.[8]

HD 124099 has a stellar classification of K2 IIp,[4] indicating that it is an evolved K-type bright giant with peculiarities in its spectrum; the peculiarity being that it has either a very weak or no G-band in its spectrum. It has 4.22 times the mass of the Sun[9] but it has expanded to 71.4 times the radius of the Sun.[10] It radiates 1,545 times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,426 K.[11] However, Gaia DR3 stellar evolution models give a larger radius of 99.4 R and a higher luminosity of 2,926 L.[1] HD 124099 is metal deficient with an iron abundance 61.2% that of the Sun's ([Fe/H] = −0.21)[12] and it spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 5.6 km/s.[13] The star is suspected to be a semiregular variable of the SRD subtype and it ranges from 6.46 to 6.49 within 528 days.[3]
