HD 139664 is a single[9] star in the southern constellation of Lupus. It has the Bayer designation g Lupi; HD 139664 is the star's identifier from the Henry Draper Catalogue.[8] It has a yellow-white hue and is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.64. The star is located at a distance of 57 light years from the Sun based on parallax,[1] and it is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −7 km/s.[2] It is a member of the Hercules-Lyra Association of co-moving stars.[10][2]

This is an F-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of F3/5V,[3] which indicates it is generating energy through core hydrogen fusion. The estimated age is poorly constrained at around one billion years,[6] but the age of the Hercules-Lyra Association to which it belongs is 257±46 million years.[11] It has a moderately high rate of spin, showing a projected rotational velocity of 71.6 km/s.[2] The star has 1.37[2] times the mass of the Sun and 1.26[7] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 3.31 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,704 K.[6]

Debris disk

A debris disk has been imaged around this star using the coronagraphic mode of the ACS instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope. The disk appears to have a dust maximum at 83 AU from the star and a sharp outer boundary at 109 AU. These features may be caused by gravitational perturbations from planets orbiting the star.[12]
