XY Ursae Majoris is a short period binary star system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Ursa Major. It is an eclipsing binary with a baseline apparent visual magnitude of 9.50.[3] The system is located at a distance of 221.5 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements,[2] but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −10 km/s.[6] It has a relatively high proper motion, traversing the celestial sphere at the angular rate of 0.191″·yr−1.[10]

The variability of this system was discovered by W. Strohmeier and its period was determined by R. Kippenhahn, with the findings announced in 1955.[11] It was found to be a detached eclipsing binary system, and by 1963 a variable primary component had been noted.[12] E. H. Geyer made intermittent light curve studies of the system starting with its discovery up until 1975,[11] ascribing variability in the light curve to star spot activity on the primary component. The orbital period of the pair was determined to be 0.479 d,[13] with the orbital plane inclined at an angle of 79.84° to the line of sight from the Earth.[8]

By 1990, enough data had been collected to identify a long term variation of the period, and it was hypothesized this was caused by a third body in the system orbiting the close binary.[14] The orbital period of this component was estimated to be ~30 years in 2001,[15] then refined to 26.7 years by 2010. If the orbital plane of this component is the same as the inner pair, its mass would be 18% of the mass of the Sun. An alternative solution to the period change suggests magnetic activity causes shifts in the angular momentum of the system, but this is considered less likely.[8]

This is a double-lined spectroscopic binary star system with an orbital period of 11.5 h.[7] The primary component is a G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G2V.[4] It is an RS Canum Venaticorum-type variable that is magnetically active[5] and a bright X-ray source.[16] Despite this, relatively few optical flares have been observed.[16] The cooler secondary is a K-type main-sequence star of class K5V that is smaller and less massive than the primary.[4]
