HD 46815 (HR 2411) is a solitary[14] star in the southern constellation Columba. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent magnitude of 5.4 and is estimated to be 408 light years away.[1] However, it is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 32.2 km/s.[5]

HD 46815 has a stellar classification of K3 III,[3] indicating that it is a red giant. At present it has 117% the mass of the Sun[7] but has expanded to 24.15 times its girth.[8] It shines with a luminosity of 180 solar luminosity[9] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,297 K,[8] giving an orange hue. HD 46815 has a metallicity 120% that of the Sun and is believed to be a member of the old disk.[10] Due to it being a giant star, it has a low projected rotational velocity of 2.3 km/s.[11]
