ο Gruis, Latinised as Omicron Gruis, is a binary or triple star[4] system in the southern constellation of Grus. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.52.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 32.50 mas as seen from the Earth,[1] the system is located 100 light years from the Sun.
The pair form a close spectroscopic binary system with a physical separation of about 14.9 astronomical units.[4] The primary component is an F-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of F4 V,[3] a star that is currently fusing its core hydrogen. It is a probable delta scuti variable showing periodicities of 4.7 and 5.5 cycles per day with amplitudes of 0.014 and 0.011 magnitudes, respectively.[5] The secondary companion is a red dwarf with a mass of about 0.3 solar, suggesting a class of M3/M4.[4] Ehrenreich et al. (2010) noted the detection of a tertiary companion that is not causing the detected radial velocity shifts which would make this a triple star system.[4]
