The stars that correspond to Eridanus cannot be fully seen from China. In Chinese astronomy , the northern part is located within the White Tiger of the West (西方白虎, Xī Fāng Bái Hǔ ). The unseen southern part was classified among the Southern Asterisms (近南極星區, Jìnnánjíxīngōu ) by Xu Guangqi , based on knowledge of ...
In the southern-sky catalog Uranometria Argentina, 82 G. Eridani (often abbreviated to 82 Eridani) [9] is the 82nd star listed in the constellation Eridanus. [10] The Argentina catalog, compiled by the 19th-century astronomer Benjamin Gould, is a southern celestial hemisphere analog of the more famous Flamsteed catalog, and uses a similar numbering scheme. 82 G. Eridani, like other stars near ...
Delta Eridani, which is Latinized from δ Eridani, is the fifth-brightest star in the constellation of Eridanus.. The star is visible to the naked eye and has been observed to vary slightly in brightness between magnitudes 3.51 and 3.56, [2] although subsequent observations did not bear this out. [11]
Eta Eridani (η Eridani, abbreviated Eta Eri, η Eri), officially named Azha (with a silent 'h', possibly / ˈ eɪ z ə /), [8] [7] is a giant star in the constellation of Eridanus. Based on parallax measurements taken during the Hipparcos mission, it is approximately 137 light-years from the Sun .
Tau 4 Eridani (τ 4 Eridani, τ 4 Eri) is a binary star system in the constellation Eridanus.It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 3.65. [2] The distance to this star can be estimated using the parallax method, which yields a value of roughly 300 light years.
Tau Eridani (τ Eridani, τ Eri) is a group of fairly widely scattered stars in the constellation Eridanus. τ 1 Eridani (1 Eridani) [1] τ 2 Eridani (2 Eridani) [2] τ 3 Eridani (11 Eridani) [3] τ 4 Eridani (16 Eridani) [4] τ 5 Eridani (19 Eridani) [5] τ 6 Eridani (27 Eridani) [6] τ 7 Eridani (28 Eridani) [7] τ 8 Eridani (33 Eridani) [8 ...
15 Eridani is a binary star [3] system in the equatorial constellation of Eridanus. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.875. [ 2 ] Based upon parallax measurements, the system is located around 260 light years away from the Sun. [ 1 ] It is moving further from the Earth with a ...
