Within the constellation's borders there are 177 stars of apparent magnitude 6.5 or greater. [b] [10] Epsilon Pegasi, also known as Enif, marks the horse's muzzle. The brightest star in Pegasus, is an orange supergiant of spectral type K21b that is around 12 times as massive as the Sun and is around 690 light-years distant from Earth. [16]
ν Pegasi, Latinized as Nu Pegasi is a single [12] star in the northern constellation of Pegasus. It is an orange-hued star that is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.84. [2] The star is located approximately 261 light years away based on parallax, [7] but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −19 ...
ι Pegasi, Latinized as Iota Pegasi is a double-lined spectroscopic binary [8] star system located within the northern constellation of Pegasus, along a line between Lambda and Kappa Pegasi. It is visible to the naked eye as a yellow-hued point of light with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 3.77. [ 2 ]
This star has 2.09 [5] times the mass of the Sun and 2.6 [12] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 25 times the luminosity of the Sun from its outer envelope at an effective temperature of 7,951 K. [12] The star appears to display a slight infrared excess. [13] θ Pegasi was suspected of being a binary star due to an acceleration detected by ...
Zeta Pegasi or ζ Pegasi, formally named Homam (/ ˈ h oʊ m æ m /), [12] [13] is a single [14] star in the northern constellation of Pegasus.With an apparent visual magnitude of +3.4, [2] this star is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye and is one of the brighter members of Pegasus.
σ Pegasi, Latinised as Sigma Pegasi, is a binary star [3] system in the northern constellation of Pegasus. With a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.16, [2] it is faintly visible to the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 36.66 mas as seen from Earth, [1] the system is located 89 light years distant from the Sun.
