The primary component is A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A1 Va.[3] It is around 146[7] million years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 182 km/s.[7] The star has an estimated 2.32[5] times the mass of the Sun and about 1.9[6] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating around 32[2] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,049 K.[7] The companion is visual magnitude 9.4 star at an angular separation of 14.8.[9]
