HD 133981, also known as HR 5628, is a solitary, bluish-white hued star located in the southern circumpolar constellation of Apus. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.02,[2] allowing it to be faintly visible to the naked eye in ideal conditions. The object is located relatively far at a distance of 856 light years based on parallax measurements from Gaia DR3[1] but is approaching the Solar System with a heliocentric radial velocity of −13.7 km/s.[5]
HD 133981 has a stellar classification of B8 IV,[3] indicating that it is a B-type star that is evolving towards the red giant branch. Houk and Cowley (1975) gave a slightly more evolved class of B8/9 III,[13] instead indicating that it is a giant star. Some evolutionary models show that it is a star just reaching the end of the main sequence.[1] Nevertheless, it has 3.72 times the mass of the Sun[1] and 6.35 times its girth.[7] It radiates 364 times the luminosity of the Sun[1] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,250 K.[9] HD 133981 is said to be 202 million years old.[1]
HD 133981 lies in front of the distant faint galaxy LEDA 54288.[14] A debris disk has been detected around the star. It has 22.5 times the mass of the Earth and an equilibrium temperature of 27 K.[9]
