Epsilon Doradus, Latinzied from ε Doradus, is a solitary[9] star located in the southern constellation of Dorado. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.11.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 5.68 mas as measured from Earth, it is located roughly 570 light years from the Sun. At that distance, the visual magnitude of the star is diminished by an extinction factor of 0.09 due to interstellar dust.[6]
This is a B-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of B6 V.[3] It is a slowly pulsating B-type star with a mean longitudinal magnetic field strength of −64±26 G.[4] With 4.31[7] times the mass of the Sun and 3.8[4] times the Sun's radius, it is about 85% of the way through its main sequence lifetime.[7] The star is an estimated 210[6] million years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 17 km/s.[7] Epsilon Doradus radiates 556 times the solar luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 13,212 K.[7]
