7 Persei is a star in the constellation Perseus , located 774 light years away from the Sun.[ 1] Bayer designation Chi Persei , it is not to be confused with the entire cluster NGC 884 , commonly referred to as Chi Persei. It is faintly visible to the naked eye as a dim, yellow-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.99.[ 2] radial velocity of −12.5 km/s.[ 2]
This is an evolved giant star with a stellar classification of G7 III,[ 4] horizontal branch .[ 3] [ 5] [ 6] mass of the Sun but has expanded to 24[ 3] Sun's radius . The star is radiating 316[ 5] Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,974 K.[ 6]
