Star in the constellation Lepus
HD 32309 is a single[ 8] star in the southern constellation of Lepus . It has a blue-white hue and is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.91.[ 2] The distance to this object is 197 light years based on parallax .[ 1] It is drifting further away from the Sun with a radial velocity of +24 km/s.[ 2] This is a member of the Columba association of co-moving stars.[ 9]
This is a B-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of B9V.[ 4] It is around 124[ 5] million years old and is spinning rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of about 300 km/s.[ 5] [ 3] Mass estimates range from 2.56[ 3] to 3.24[ 5] times the mass of the Sun and it has about 3.1[ 6] times the Sun's radius . The star is radiating 46.5[ 2] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 12,450 K.[ 5]
