Iota Hydrae (ι Hydrae, abbreviated Iota Hya, ι Hya), formally named Ukdah /ˈʌkdə/,[8] is a star in the constellation of Hydra, about 8° to the north-northwest of Alphard (Alpha Hydrae)[9] and just to the south of the celestial equator.[10] Visible to the naked eye, it is a suspected variable star with an apparent visual magnitude that ranges between 3.87 and 3.91.[3] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 12.39 mas measured during the Hipparcos mission,[1] it is located around 263 light-years from the Sun.

Nomenclature

ι Hydrae (Latinised to Iota Hydrae) is the star's Bayer designation.

This star along with Tau¹ Hydrae, Tau² Hydrae and 33 Hydrae (A Hydrae), were Ptolemy's Καμπή (Kampē); but Kazwini knew them as عقدة ʽuqdah (or ʽuḳdah) "knot".[11] According to a 1971 NASA memorandum,[12] Ukdah was the name of an asterism of four stars: Tau¹ Hydrae as Uḳdah I, Tau² Hydrae as Uḳdah II, 33 Hydrae as Uḳdah III and Iota Hydrae as Uḳdah IV. In 2016, the IAU organized a Working Group on Star Names (WGSN)[13] to catalog and standardize proper names for stars. The WGSN approved the name Ukdah for Iota Hydrae on 1 June 2018 and it is now so included in the List of IAU-approved Star Names.[8]

In Chinese, 星宿 (Xīng Sù), meaning Star or asterism, refers to an asterism consisting of ι Hydrae, Alphard, τ1 Hydrae, τ2 Hydrae, 26 Hydrae, 27 Hydrae, HD 82477 and HD 82428.[14] Consequently, ι Hydrae are known as 星宿四 (Xīng Sù sì, English: the Fourth Star of Star).[15]

Properties

This is an evolved K-type giant star with a stellar classification of K2.5 III.[2] It is a Barium star, which means that, for a giant star, it displays unusually strong absorption lines of singly-ionized barium and strontium.[16] Iota Hydrae has nearly twice[2] the mass of the Sun and has expanded to 30 times the Sun's radius.[6] It is around 2.5 billion years old and is spinning with a leisurely projected rotational velocity of 4.5[4] km/s. It may be a member of the Wolf 630 moving group of stars that share a common trajectory through space.[17]
