Physical properties

This is an aging star with a mass of twice the Sun, and radiating 1.15 times the luminosity. It also is a swollen star with 5.14 times the radius, and has a cool temperature of 4943 K. The "IV" in the spectral class means it's a K-type subgiant star which is starting to exhaust the hydrogen at its core, and cooling and expanding to become a red giant.

System

HD 4313 is a single star, which means it has no binary partners, but has a Jovian planet orbiting it. This planet was discovered in 2010.
