ν Andromedae
Nu Andromedae (Nu And, ν Andromedae, ν And) is a binary star in the constellation Andromeda. The system has an apparent visual magnitude of 4.5, which is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. It is approximately from Earth. Situated just over a degree to the west of this star is the Andromeda Galaxy. Nu Andromedae is spectroscopic binary system with a nearly circular orbit that has a period of 4.2828 days. The primary component is a B-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of B5 V. The fainter secondary has a classification of F8 V, which makes it an F-type main sequence star. The pair is about 63 million years old.

F-type Main Sequence Star
An F-type main-sequence star (F V) is a main-sequence, hydrogen-fusing star of spectral type F and luminosity class V. These stars have from 1.0 to 1.4 times the mass of the Sun and surface temperatures between 6,000 and 7,600  K.Tables VII and VIII. This temperature range gives the F-type stars a whitish hue when observed by the atmosphere. Because a main-sequence star is referred to as a dwarf star, this class of star may also be termed a yellow-white dwarf (not to be confused with white dwarfs, remnant stars that are a possible final stage of stellar evolution). Notable examples include Procyon A, Gamma Virginis A and B, and KIC 8462852. Spectral standard stars The revised Yerkes Atlas system (Johnson & Morgan 1953) listed a dense grid of F-type dwarf spectral standard stars; however, not all of these have survived to this day as stable standards. The ''anchor points'' of the MK spectral classification system among the F-type main-sequence dwarf stars, i.e. those standa ...

Tau Piscium
Tau Piscium (Ï„ Piscium) is an orange-hued star in the zodiac constellation of Pisces. With an apparent visual magnitude of +4.52, it is a dim star but visible to the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 19.32 mas as seen from Earth, it is located around 169 light years from the Sun. It is most likely (96% chance) a member of the thin disk population. This is an evolved K-type giant star with a stellar classification of K0.5 IIIb. It is about 2.27 billion years and is a red clump star on the horizontal branch, which indicates it is generating energy through helium fusion at its core. The star has 1.7 times the mass of the Sun and has expanded to about 10 times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 45 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,624 K. Naming In Chinese, (), meaning ''Legs'', refers to an asterism consisting of Ï„ Piscium, η Andromedae, 65 Piscium, ζ Andromedae, ε And ...

Sigma Piscium
Sigma Piscium (Sigma Psc, σ Piscium, σ Psc) is a main-sequence star in the zodiac constellation of Pisces. It has an apparent magnitude of +5.50, meaning it is barely visible to the naked eye, according to the Bortle scale. While parallax measurements by the Hipparcos spacecraft give a distance of approximately 430 light years (133 parsecs), dynamical parallax measurements put it slightly closer, at 368 light-years (113 parsecs) from Earth. Sigma Piscium is a spectroscopic binary system, meaning the components of the system have been detected from periodic Doppler shifts in their spectra. In this case, light from both stars can be detected and it is double-lined. It has an orbital period of 81 days, and the orbit is relatively eccentric, at about 0.9. Both components are B-type main-sequence stars. Sigma Piscium is moving through the Milky Way at a speed of 23.5 km/s relative to the Sun. Its projected galactic orbit carries it between 24,300 an ...

Beta Andromedae
Beta Andromedae, Latinized from β Andromedae, and officially named Mirach , is a prominent star in the northern constellation of Andromeda. It is northeast of the Great Square of Pegasus and is potentially visible to all observers north of latitude 54° S. It is commonly used by stargazers to find the Andromeda Galaxy. The galaxy NGC 404, also known as Mirach's Ghost, is seven arcminutes away from Mirach. This star has an average apparent visual magnitude of 2.05, making it the brightest star in the constellation. The luminosity varies slightly from magnitude +2.01 to +2.10. Based upon parallax measurements, it is roughly from the Sun. Its apparent magnitude is reduced by 0.06 by extinction due to gas and dust along the line of sight. The star has a negligible radial velocity of 0.1 km/s, but with a relatively large proper motion, traversing the celestial sphere at ·yr−1. Properties Beta Andromedae is a single red giant with a stellar classification of M0& ...

Mu Andromedae
Mu Andromedae (Mu And, μ Andromedae, μ And) is the Bayer designation for a star in the northern constellation of Andromeda. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 3.87, making it readily visible to the naked eye. Based upon parallax measurements, it is approximately from Earth. In the constellation, the star is situated about halfway between the bright star Mirach to the southwest and the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) to the northeast. The spectrum of this star matches a stellar classification of A5 V, indicating that it is an A-type main sequence star. It has double the mass of the Sun and 2.4 times the Sun's radius. The star is radiating about 21 times the luminosity of the Sun from its outer envelope at an effective temperature of 7,959 K, giving it the characteristic white glow of an A-type star. It is estimated to be about 600 million years old, with a relatively high projected rotational velocity of 75 km/s. Mu Andromedae has recentl ...

Pi Andromedae
Pi Andromedae (Pi And, Ï€ Andromedae, Ï€ And) is the Bayer designation for a binary star system in the northern constellation of Andromeda. With an apparent visual magnitude of 4.4, it is visible to the naked eye. It is located approximately from Earth. The pair is classified as a blue-white B-type main sequence dwarf, with an apparent magnitude of +4.34. It is a spectroscopic binary with an orbital period of 143.6 days and an eccentricity of 0.56.
