Gamma3 Octantis, Latinized from γ3 Octantis, is a solitary star[12] located in the southern circumpolar constellation Octans. It is faintly visible to the naked eye as an orange-hued star with an apparent magnitude of 5.28.[2] The object is located relatively close at a distance of 264 light years but is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 15 km/s. At its current distance, Gamma3 Octantis' brightness is diminished by two tenths of a magnitude due to interstellar dust[13] and Eggen (1993) lists it as a member of the old disk population.[14] It has an absolute magnitude of +0.83.[7]
Gamma3 Octantis has a stellar classification of K1/2 III,[4] indicating that it is an evolved K-type star with the characteristics of a K1 and K2 giant star. It is a red clump star that is currently on the horizontal branch,[3] fusing helium at its core. At present it has 2.23 times the mass of the Sun but has expanded to almost 10 times its girth.[8] It radiates 50.5 times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,879 K, which gives it a yellowish-orange glow.[8] Gamma3 Octantis is metal enriched with an iron abundance 1.55[8] times that of the Sun and common for giant stars, spins slowly with a projected rotational velocity less than 1 km/s.[9]
