HD 160529 (V905 Scorpii) is a luminous blue variable (LBV) star located in the constellation of Scorpius. With an apparent magnitude of around +6.8 cannot be seen with the naked eye except under very favourable conditions, but it is easy to see with binoculars or amateur telescopes.
Physical characteristics
V905 Sco has a peculiar variable spectral type with emission lines and P Cygni profiles. At visual maximum it is similar to an A9 star and at minimum close to B8.[5] The distance has been estimated at 2.5 kiloparsecs (8,200 light years) based on the assumption of an absolute magnitude of −8.9.[8] However this distance is uncertain and values between 1.9 kiloparsecs and 3.5 kiloparsecs have been proposed.[5]
Working with a distance of 2.5 kiloparsecs, the radius varies from 150 R☉ when quiescent to 330 R☉ in outburst. The temperature also varies, from 8,000K in outburst to 12,000K when quiescent. With these parameters, the apparent visual magnitude varies by 0.5 and the bolometric luminosity is constant at 180,000 L☉.[5]
Estimates of the surface gravity lead to a mass of 13 M☉ and a probable initial mass of 25 M☉ This suggests that V905 Sco is a former red supergiant star.[8]
