HD 46815
HD 46815 (HR 2411) is a solitary star in the southern constellation Columba. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent magnitude of 5.4 and is estimated to be 408 light years away. However, it is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 32.2 km/s.
HD 46815 has a stellar classification of K3 III, indicating that it is a red giant. At present it has 117% the mass of the Sun but has expanded to 24.15 times its girth. It shines with a luminosity of 180 L☉ from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,297 K, giving an orange hue. HD 46815 has a metallicity 120% that of the Sun and is believed to be a member of the old disk. Due to it being a giant star, it has a low projected rotational velocity of 2.3 km/s.
