Star in the constellation Aries
20 Arietis is a single[ 8] star in the northern constellation of Aries . 20 Arietis is the Flamsteed designation . It has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.79, which is bright enough to be just faintly visible to the naked eye as a yellow-white hued star. The star is located approximately 137 light years away from the Sun based upon parallax . It has a relatively high proper motion , traversing the celestial sphere at the rate of 0.188 arc seconds per annum.[ 9] radial velocity of +25 km/s.[ 2]
Gray et al. (2001) gave the stellar classification of 20 Arietis as F6 III-IV,[ 3] F-type star with spectral traits intermediate between a giant and a subgiant star . Harlan (1969) had found a less-evolved class of F6 IV-V.[ 4] [ 5] mass of the Sun [ 5] Sun's radius .[ 5] projected rotational velocity of 8.0 km/s[ 6] metallicity .[ 5] [ 6] luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of around 6,416 K.[ 5]
