Zeta Pavonis is an orange-hued star in the southern constellation Pavo. Its name is a Bayer designation that is Latinized from ζ Pavonis, and abbreviated Zeta Pav or ζ Pav. Its apparent magnitude is 4.01,[2] which is bright enough to be faintly visible to the naked eye. The annual parallax shift of this star is 15.15 mas as seen from Earth,[1] which provides a distance of 215 light-years (66 parsecs). It is moving closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of −16.30.[4] Based upon its motion through space, this star appears to be a member of the Hyades Supercluster.[7]
This is an evolved K-type giant star with a stellar classification of K0 III,[2] which indicates it has exhausted the supply of hydrogen at its core. This star has 19 times the radius of the Sun, radiating 133 solar luminosities from its photosphere[5] at an effective temperature of 4,514 K. The metallicity of the star is subsolar.[6]
Zeta Pavonis has a companion, probably optical, of apparent magnitude 12.0 at about 55.6" separation.[8][9]
