HR 7955 is a binary star[2] system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Cepheus, near the constellation border with Cygnus. It has a yellow-white hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 4.51.[2] The system is located at a distance of 89 light-years (27.3 parsecs) from the Sun, based on parallax.[1] It has a relatively high proper motion, traversing the celestial sphere at the rate of 0.243 arc seconds per annum,[8] and is drifting closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of -33 km/s.[3]
The double-lined nature of this spectroscopic binary system was not announced until 1972.[5] It has an orbital period of 1.35 years and an eccentricity of 0.551.[2] Both components appear to be slightly evolved stars that are leaving the main sequence and becoming subgiant stars, with stellar classifications of F8IV-V and F9IV-V. They each have slightly greater mass than the Sun: 107% and 105%, respectively.[2] The system is about 2.25 billion years old.[6]
