Delta1 Lyrae

Delta1 Lyrae, its name Latinized from δ1 Lyrae, is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Lyra. It is dimly visible to the naked eye at night with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.56.[2] The system is located at a distance of approximately 1,160 light years from the Sun based on parallax,[1] but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −26 km/s.[5] O. J. Eggen originally included this as a candidate member of the proposed Delta Lyrae cluster.[12]

The variable radial velocity of this star was discovered from photographic plates taken at the Yerkes Observatory in 1904.[13] The first set of orbital elements was computed by Frank Craig Jordan in 1916.[14] It is a single-lined spectroscopic binary with an orbital period of 88.4 days and an eccentricity (ovalness) of 0.37.[7]

The visible component of the pair has a blue-white hue with a stellar classification of B2.5V,[3][4] indicating that it is a B-type main-sequence star undergoing core hydrogen fusion. It is a few million years old with a relatively high rotation rate and around 7–8 times the mass of the Sun. The star is radiating about 3,620[8] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 20,350 K.[8]

There is a magnitude 9.93 visual companion at an angular separation of 175.30 arcseconds along a position angle of 20°, as of 2012. This component was discovered by William Herschel.[15] It is an evolved giant star with a class of K2III at a distance of around 1,760 light years.[16]
