ο Pegasi, Latinized as Omicron Pegasi, is a suspected astrometric binary[7] star system in the northern constellation of Pegasus. It is white in hue and visible to the naked eye as a faint point of light with an apparent visual magnitude of +4.80.[2] The distance to this system is approximately 290 light years based on parallax,[1] and it is drifting further away from the Sun with a radial velocity of +8.5 km/s.[2]
The visible component has a stellar classification of A1 IV,[3] matching a subgiant star that has begun to cool, expand and brighten off the main sequence. It has very narrow lines due to a low projected rotational velocity of 6 km/s. The abundances of iron are Sun-like, while it displays an overabundance of heavier elements. Some studies have suggested it is an Am-like star.[3] Omicron Pegasi is an estimated 184 million years old with 2.24 times the mass of the Sun.[5] It is radiating 104[2] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,956 K.[5]
