HD 72337, also known as HR 3370, is a solitary,[13] bluish-white hued star located in the southern constellation Volans. With an apparent magnitude of 5.51,[2] it is faintly visible to the unaided eye but only under ideal conditions.

Velocity

Based on recent parallax measurements from the Gaia spacecraft, HD 72337 is currently located at a distance of 287 light years.[1] The object made its closest approach 1.914 million years ago when it was 234 light years distant.[6] At that distance, it brightened slightly to an apparent magnitude of 5.13.[6] Currently, HR 3370 is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 10.7 km/s.[5]

Properties

The stellar classification of HD 72337 is A0 V,[3] indicating that it is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star. It has 2.25 times the radius of the Sun[8] and a mass of 2.51 M.[7] It radiates at 42.5 times the luminosity of the Sun[9] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,251 K.[11] Like many hot stars, HD 72337 rotates rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 149 km/s, and is estimated to be 265 million years old.[10]
