Eta Piscium (η Piscium , abbreviated Eta Psc , η Psc ) is a binary star and the brightest star in the constellation of Pisces , with an apparent visual magnitude of +3.6.[2] Based upon a measured annual parallax shift of 9.33 mas as seen from Earth,[1] it is located roughly 350 light-years distant from the Sun in the thin disk population of the Milky Way .[5]
The two components are designated Eta Piscium A (formally named Alpherg , the traditional name of the system)[10] and B .
Nomenclature [ edit ]
η Piscium (Latinised to Eta Piscium ) is the system's Bayer designation . The designations of the two constituents as Eta Piscium A and B derive from the convention used by the Washington Multiplicity Catalog (WMC) for multiple star systems , and adopted by the International Astronomical Union (IAU).[11]
The system bore the traditional names Al Pherg (in this context meaning the emptying) and Kullat Nunu . At the time that the sun at the March Equinox entered into Pisces having lay in Aries, the system was in the first ecliptic constellation of the Neo-Babylonians , Kullat Nūnu − 'Nūnu' being Babylonian for fish and 'Kullat' referring to either the bucket or the cord that binds the fish.[12] In 2016, the IAU organized a Working Group on Star Names (WGSN)[13] to catalog and standardize proper names for stars. The WGSN decided to attribute proper names to individual stars rather than entire multiple systems .[14] It approved the name Alpherg for the component Eta Piscium A on 1 June 2018 (for its official List).[10]
In Chinese , 右更 (Yòu Gèng ), meaning Official in Charge of the Pasturing , refers to an asterism consisting of Eta Piscium, Rho Piscium , Pi Piscium , Omicron Piscium and 104 Piscium . Consequently, the Chinese name for Eta Piscium itself is 右更二 (Yòu Gèng èr , English: the Second Star of Official in Charge of the Pasturing .)[15]
Properties [ edit ]
At its present distance, the visual magnitude of the system is diminished by an extinction factor of 0.09± 0.06 due to interstellar dust .
This system's binary nature was discovered in 1878 by an amateur astronomer, S. W. Burnham .[7] It has an orbital period of roughly 850 years, a semimajor axis of 1.2 arc seconds , and an eccentricity of 0.47.
The primary, component A, is an evolved , magnitude 3.83[3] G-type giant star with a stellar classification of G7 IIIa.[4] It has a weak magnetic field with a strength of 0.4± 0.2 G ,[8] and is a Gamma Cassiopeiae variable .[7] The companion, component B, is a magnitude 7.51 star.[3]
