HD 37811 (HR 1958) is a solitary[13] star in the southern constellation Columba. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.44,[3] allowing it to be faintly seen with the naked eye. Parallax measurements place the object at a distance of 382 light years[2] and it is currently approaching with a heliocentric radial velocity of −8.3 km/s.[7]

HD 37811 has a stellar classification of G6/8 III[5] — intermediate between a G6 and G8 giant star that is currently on the red giant branch.[4] It has 3 times the mass of the Sun[8] but has expanded to 11.7 times its girth[8] at an age of 440 million years.[10] It shines with a luminosity of 86 L☉[8] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,139 K,[8] giving a yellow glow. HD 37811 has a solar metallicity[8] and spins leisurely with a projected rotational velocity of about 2.4 km/s.[9]
