a variable star in the constellation of Andromeda. It is classified as a semiregular variable pulsating giant star, and varies from an apparent visual magnitude of 14.5 at minimum brightness to a magnitude of 9.9 at maximum brightness, with a period of approximately 238.3 days.
The stars that make up Pisces and the middle portion of modern Andromeda formed a constellation representing a fertility goddess, sometimes named as Anunitum or the Lady of the Heavens. [8] Andromeda is known as "the Chained Lady" or "the Chained Woman" in English.
All stars but one can be associated with an IAU (International Astronomical Union) constellation. IAU constellations are areas of the sky. Although there are only 88 IAU constellations, the sky is actually divided into 89 irregularly shaped boxes as the constellation Serpens is split into two separate sections, Serpens Caput (the snake's head) to the west and Serpens Cauda (the snake's tail ...

It also has the Flamsteed designation 34 Andromedae and multiple other designations in stellar catalogues.
The star, originally known as BD+41 376, received the variable star designation XZ Andromedae in 1924. [10] Photometric periods of Algol variables matches the orbital period of the system. However, in XZ Andromedae have been observed slight period variations that can be reproduced with three different cycles of 137.5, 36.8 and 11.2 years ...
Nu Andromedae (Nu And, ν Andromedae, ν And) is a binary star in the constellation Andromeda. The system has an apparent visual magnitude of 4.5, [2] which is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. It is approximately 620 light-years (190 parsecs) from Earth. [1] Situated just over a degree to the west of this star is the Andromeda ...
