Delta Delphini, Latinized from δ Delphini, is a binary star[12] in the northern constellation of Delphinus. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.43.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 14.61 mas as seen from the Earth,[1] the system is located about 223 light years from the Sun.
This is a double-lined spectroscopic binary[12] system with an orbital period of 40.58 days.[12] The two components are nearly identical chemically peculiar stars, having a combined stellar classification of kA7hF0mF0(IV-V).[4] This notation indicates the calcium K line matches an A7 star, the hydrogen lines an F0 star, and the metal lines an F0 star. Each of the stars is a Delta Scuti variable, with the system having a dominant period of 0.1568 days and an amplitude of 0.0700 in magnitude.[2] Delta Delphini forms the prototype of a class of metal-lined δ Scuti subgiant or giant stars.[13]
