Iota Piscis Austrini (ι Piscis Austrini) is a solitary,[7] blue-white hued star in the southern constellation of Piscis Austrinus. It has an apparent visual magnitude of +4.35[2] and is around 500 light years from the Sun. This is an A-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of A0 V.[3] It has a magnitude 11.4 visual companion located at an angular separation of 20 arc seconds along a position angle of 290°, as of 1910.[8]
Iota Piscis Austrini is moving through the Galaxy at a speed of 29.7 km/s relative to the Sun. Its projected Galactic orbit carries it between 18,400 and 24,300 light years from the center of the Galaxy.[9][unreliable source?]
Naming
In Chinese, 天錢 (Tiān Qián), meaning Celestial Money, refers to an asterism consisting of refers to an asterism consisting of ι Piscis Austrini 13 Piscis Austrini, θ Piscis Austrini, μ Piscis Austrini and τ Piscis Austrini. Consequently, the Chinese name for ι Piscis Austrini itself is 天錢三 (Tiān Qián sān, English: the Third Star of Celestial Money.)[10]
