HD 115404
Binary star in the constellation Coma Berenices
HD 115404 is a binary star system located in the constellation Coma Berenices . Parallax measurements made by Hipparcos put the system at 36 light-years, or 11 parsecs, away. The combined apparent magnitude of the system is 6.52, with the magnitudes of the components being 6.66 and 9.50.
The primary component, designated A, is a K-type main sequence star . It is about 70% as massive as the Sun , and is 0.76 times as wide. Its companion is a red dwarf (M0.5 V). It has 54.2% the mass of the Sun, and is 0.55 times as wide. The two stars orbit each other every 770 years, and are separated by about 8″ . The system is thought to be fairly old, at 5.4 to 13.5 billion years old.
In 2022, two exoplanets , Neptunian and super-Jovian in mass, were reported in orbit around the primary star using a combination of radial velocity and astrometry . However, a 2025 study using radial velocity observations failed to detect these planets.
