22 Andromedae

Summary

22 Andromedae, abbreviated 22 And, is a single[11] star in the constellation Andromeda. 22 Andromedae is the Flamsteed designation. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.04.[2] The distance to 22 And can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of just 2.2 mas,[1] which shows it to be around 1,500 light years away. It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −8.2 km/s.[5]

This is a bright giant with a stellar classification of F5 II.[3] Gray et al. (2001) classify it as F5 Ib–II metal-weak, with the metallic lines matching a class of F0 whereas hydrogen lines match an F5.[4] It is around 62[3] million years old with a projected rotational velocity of 46.[9] The star has six[3] times the mass of the Sun and has expanded to about 17[7] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 1,436[8] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,270 km/s.[3]
