HD 15558 (HIP 11832) is a massive O-type multiple star system in Cassiopeia and is specifically in our galaxy's Heart Nebula in the open cluster IC 1805. The primary is a very massive star with 152 M☉ and 660,000 L☉.
Physical characteristics
HD 15558 A is a spectroscopic binary system containing at least two massive luminous class O stars. The primary is an O4.5 giant star with a surface temperature over 46,800 K. It has a mass of 152 M☉ and a luminosity of 660,000 L☉, making it one of the most massive stars in the Milky Way Galaxy. The star loses 1.5×10−5 M☉ per year.[7] The secondary is an O7V star. It has a mass of 46 M☉. The primary may itself be a double star, suggested by the improbably large mass found from the binary orbit when compared to the other stellar parameters.[4]
The Washington Double Star Catalog lists 11 companions within one arc minute of HD 15558 A, all fainter than 10th magnitude. In addition, it lists component E just over one arc minute away; it is another hot massive star, the 9th magnitude BD+60°501 with a spectral type of O7 V(n)((f))z.[3][8]
