In the Bright Star Catalogue it was listed with a class of, suggesting it is a mild barium star and thus might have a white dwarf companion. It is a red clump giant, indicating it is on the horizontal branch and is generating energy through the fusion of helium at its core. The star is radiating 170 times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,997 K.
