Binary in the constellation of Mensa
HD 33519 , also known as HR 1682 , is a probable spectroscopic binary [ 11] located in the southern circumpolar constellation Mensa . It is one of the stars near the limit of naked eye visibility, having an apparent magnitude of 6.28.[ 2] The system is relatively far at a distance of 940 light years [ 1] but is approaching with a heliocentric radial velocity of −2.5 km/s .[ 5] However, this value is poorly constrained.
The visible component has a stellar classification of K5/M0 III,[ 3] indicating an evolved red giant with the characteristics of a K5 and M0 giant star . At present it has 4.34 times the mass of the Sun [ 7] but has expanded to 45.4 times its girth .[ 8] It shines with a luminosity of 465 L ☉ [ 9] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,118 K ,[ 8] giving it an orange-red hue when viewed in the night sky . HD 33519's metallicity , what astronomers dub as elements heavier than helium , is around solar level.[ 10] Like most giants, it spins slowly, with its projected rotational velocity being lower than 1 km/s .[ 11]
There is an 11th magnitude optical companion located 50.2″ away along a position angle of 110° .[ 14] It has no relation to the system, having a drastically different proper motion .[ 14]
