HD 81040 is a star in the equatorial constellation of Leo. With an apparent visual magnitude of +7.73[2] it is too dim to be visible to the naked eye but can be viewed with a small telescope. The star is located at a distance of 112 light years from the Sun based on parallax. It is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +49 km/s,[3] having come to within 48 light-years some 527,000 years ago.
This is an ordinary G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G0V.[2] The Sun somewhat dwarfs HD 81040 in terms of physical characteristics: it has 87% of the Sun's mass and 91% of the radius of the Sun. It is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 5.3 km/s,[2] and has near solar metallicity.[4] The age of the star is not precisely known; the ELODIE spectrograph suggested 0.8 Gyr and found it to have a young dust disk.[6] Later measurements by modelling chromosperic activity suggested an age of 4.18 Gyr.[citation needed]
Planetary system
On November 24, 2005, a superjovian planet was announced by Sozzetti.
