Hierarchy of orbits[8]

Upsilon Ophiuchi is a quadruple star system in the equatorial constellation of Ophiuchus. It has a white hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.62. The distance to this system is approximately 130 light years based on parallax. It is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −30.6 km/s.

The variable radial velocity of the brighter component was first observed by H. A. Abt in 1961. It is a double-lined spectroscopic binary system with an orbital period of 27.2 days and an eccentricity of 0.74.[6] They have a combined magnitude of 4.71. Both components are similar stars with a combined stellar classification of kA2hA5VmA5, and one or both are Am stars.[3] The fainter component has an 82.8 year orbit with the brighter pair at an eccentricity of 0.45,[7] and is itself binary, making the system a quadruple.[8] The system is a source for X-ray emission.[12]

This system forms part of the Upsilon Ophiuchi cluster, a small group of six stars which share similar kinematics and are spread over about eight degrees. The two brightest stars, apart from Upsilon Ophiuchi itself, are sometimes listed as components B and C: B is HD 148300, and C is HD 144660.[8] Both are 9th-magnitude K-class dwarfs.[13]

    This is a navigational template created using {{navbox}}. It can be transcluded on pages by placing {{Upsilon Ophiuchi}} below the standard article appendices.

    Initial visibility

    This template's initial visibility currently defaults to autocollapse, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible.

    To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:

    • {{Upsilon Ophiuchi|state=collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar.
    • {{Upsilon Ophiuchi|state=expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.

    Templates using the classes class=navbox ({{navbox}}) or class=nomobile ({{sidebar}}) are not displayed in article space on the mobile web site of English Wikipedia. Mobile page views accounted for 60% to 70% of all page views from 2020 through 2025. Briefly, these templates are not included in articles because 1) they are not well designed for mobile, and 2) they significantly increase page sizes—bad for mobile downloads—in a way that is not useful for the mobile use case. You can review/watch phab:T124168 for further discussion.
