HD 85622 is a binary star system in the southern constellation of Vela. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.58.[2] The distance to HD 85622 can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of 4.3 mas,[1] yielding a value of 750 light years. It is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +8 km/s.[6]
This is a single-lined spectroscopic binary with a circular orbit and a period of 329.3 days. The a sin i value is 0.39 AU, where a is the semimajor axis and i is the orbital inclination to the line of sight.[3] This value provides a lower bound on the actual semimajor axis. The system shows a micro-variability in its brightness,[3] and is a source of X-ray emission with an apparent flux of 42.6×10−17 W/m2.[10]
The visible component is a supergiant star with a stellar classification of G5 Ib[3] or G6 IIa.[4] It is about 64[7] million years old with a projected rotational velocity of 19 km/s.[5] The star has 6.2[7] times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 1,908[8] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,796 K.[8]
