22 Cygni
Star in the constellation Cygnus
22 Cygni is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Cygnus . It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, blue-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.95.[ 2] The annual shift of 3.0 mas [ 1] yields a distance estimate of around 1,070 light years . It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −15 km/s.[ 4]
This is a single-lined spectroscopic binary with an orbital period of 78.2 days and an eccentricity of roughly 0.17.[ 5] The visible component has a stellar classification of B5 IV[ 3] that matches a B-type subgiant star . It is 37[ 6] million years old with a projected rotational velocity of 30[ 10] km/s and has an essentially solar metallicity , within the margin of error.[ 9] The star has eight[ 6] times the mass of the Sun and about 5.6[ 7] times the Sun's radius . It is radiating 7,305[ 8] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 15,200 K.[ 8]
