9 Lacertae is a single[9] star in the northern constellation Lacerta, located 172 light years away from Sun.[1] It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, white-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.64.[2] This object is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +10 km/s.[2]
This is an A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A9VkA7mA6.[3] This notation indicates it has the Hydrogen lines of an A9 star, the Calcium K line of an A7 star, and the metal lines of an A6. It is 513[4] million years old with a high projected rotational velocity of 105 km/s.[6] The star has 1.59[4] times the mass of the Sun and about 2.1[5] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 34.6[6] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,614 K.[4]
