Phi Gruis, Latinised from φ Gruis, is a solitary,[7] yellow-white hued star in the southern constellation of Grus, near the eastern constellation border with Phoenix. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of +5.49.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 29.3 mas as seen from the Earth,[8] it lies at a distance of 111 light years from the Sun. The star is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +15 km/s.[1]
This object is an F-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of F4 V,[3] where the luminosity class of 'V' indicates it is currently generating energy through hydrogen fusion at its core. It is 2.12[5] billion years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 20 km/s.[4] The star has 1.45[5] times the mass of the Sun and 1.87[1] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 5.8[1] times as much luminosity as the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,606 km/s.[5]
