HD 75171
Star in the constellation of Volans
HD 75171 , also known as HR 3495 , is a solitary, white hued star located in the southern constellation of Volans . It has an apparent magnitude of 6.02, making it faintly visible to the naked eye under ideal conditions. The object is relatively close at a distance of 191 light years but is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 10.7 km/s . Eggen (1995) lists it as a probable member of the Hyades Supercluster .
HD 75171 has a stellar classification of A4 V, indicating that it is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star . It has also been given a cooler class of A9 V. It has 1.81 times the mass of the Sun and a diameter of 1.84 R ☉ . It radiates at 12 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,998 K . Like most hot stars, it spins quickly with a projected rotational velocity of 96 km/s . HD 75171 is estimated to be 630 million years old, well around the age of the actual Hyades cluster . Zorec and Royer (2012) model it to be a dwarf star 50.4% through its main sequence lifetime, and Gaia Data Release 3 models also show a star roughly halfway through its main sequence life. The star has a near solar metallicity , with the iron abundance being 87% that of the Sun .
