Eta2 Coronae Australis (Eta2 CrA), Latinized from η2 Coronae Australis, is a solitary star[14] located in the southern constellation of Corona Australis. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, blue-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.59.[2] Gaia DR3 parallax measurements imply a distance of 770 light years from the Solar System,[1] but it is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −23 km/s.[6] At its current distance Eta2 CrA's brightness is diminished by 0.27 magnitudes due to stellar extinction from interstellar dust[15] and it has an absolute magnitude of −0.24.[7]

This object has a stellar classification of B9 IV,[4] indicating that is a slightly evolved a B-type subgiant star. However, Zorec & Royer (2012) model it to be a dwarf star that has completed 80.4% of its main sequence lifetime.[3] It is estimated to be 213 million years old[11] and it has a mass that is 3.23 times that of the Sun.[3] The star is radiating 171 times the luminosity of the Sun[3] from its photosphere 5.82 times the radius of the Sun[8] at an effective temperature of 10,940 K.[3] Eta2 CrA has a near-solar metallicity at [Fe/H] = +0.06[9] and spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 30 km/s.[10] Some earlier catalogues listed the object as a chemically peculiar star but that status is now considered to be doubtful.[16]
