Star in the constellation Andromeda
65 Andromedae , abbreviated 65 And , is a single,[ 10] orange-hued star in the northern constellation of Andromeda . With an apparent magnitude of 4.73,[ 2] it is visible to the naked eye. The distance to 65 And can be derived from its annual parallax shift of 7.5 mas ,[ 1] which yields a range of around 440 light years . At that distance, its brightness is relatively lowered primarily by the inverse square law but also by an extinction of 0.16 magnitude due to interstellar dust .[ 11] The star is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −5 km/s.[ 5]
This is a mildly iron-deficient[ 12] giant star with a stellar classification of K4.5 III,[ 3] which indicates that, at the age of three billion years,[ 7] is an evolved star that has exhausted the hydrogen at its core and expanded its radius. The measured angular diameter of this star, after correction for limb darkening , is 3.28± 0.06 mas .[ 13] At the estimated distance of this star, this yields a physical size of about 47 times the radius of the Sun .[ 8] The star has 1.6[ 7] times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 372[ 7] times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 3,927 K.[ 7]
