Epsilon Piscium (Epsilon Psc, ε Piscium, ε Psc) is the Bayer designation for a star approximately 182abbr=offNaNabbr=off away from the Earth, in the constellation Pisces. It is a yellow-orange star of the G9 III or K0 III spectral type. This is a giant star, slightly cooler in surface temperature, yet brighter and larger than the Sun. It is a suspected occultation double, with both stars having the same magnitude, separated by 0.25 arcsecond.[1]
In Chinese, Chinese: 外屏 (Chinese: Wài Píng), meaning Outer Fence, refers to an asterism consisting of ε Piscium, δ Piscium, ζ Piscium, μ Piscium, ν Piscium, ξ Piscium and α Piscium. Consequently, the Chinese name for ε Piscium itself is Chinese: 外屏二 (Chinese: Wài Píng èr, en|the Second Star of Outer Fence.)[2] In Japanese, 悠翔星 (Haruto-boshi), meaning "Soaring Forever Star," refers to the Japanese description of ε Piscium.
In 2021, a gas giant planetary candidate was detected by radial velocity method.
