40 Boötis is a single[8] star located 166.5 light years away from the Sun in the northern constellation of Boötes. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, yellow-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.64.[2] The star is moving away from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +12 km/s.[5]

The Hipparcos catalogue (1997) lists a stellar classification of F1 III–IV,[9] matching the luminosity class of an aging star that is evolving into a giant.[3] Earlier, Cowley and Bidelman (1979) listed a class of F2 III,[10] while Sato and Kuji (1990) found a main sequence class of F0V.[11] It is around 1.2[6] billion years old with a relatively high rotation rate, showing a projected rotational velocity of 72.5 km/s.[3] The star has 1.5[6] times the mass of the Sun and 2.4[1] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 11.6[1] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,070 K.[6]
