Delta² Tauri (δ² Tauri) is a solitary,^[10] white-hued star in the zodiac constellation of Taurus. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 20.21 mas as seen from Earth,^[1] it is located roughly 161 light years distant from the Sun. It is separated from δ¹ Tauri by 0.3° on the sky^[11] and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of +4.80.^[2] The star is considered a member of the Hyades cluster.^[12]

At the estimated age of 449 million years,^[6] this is an A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A2 Vs,^[3] where the 's' suffix indicates narrow (sharp) absorption lines. It has 1.8^[6] times the mass of the Sun and about 1.8^[7] times the Sun's radius. The star is radiating 27^[8] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,997 K.^[4]

δ² Tauri is a source of X-ray emission with a luminosity of 101.1×10²⁰ W. Since A-type stars are not normally a source of X-rays, this emission may be coming from an unknown companion or from a line of sight source.^[13]
