DS Tucanae (HD 222259) is a binary star system in the constellation of Tucana. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 8.5,[7] and is a RS Canum Venaticorum variable.[4] The system is notable for being young as a member of the 45 Myr old Tucana-Horologium moving group[9] and for the primary star hosting the confirmed exoplanet , discovered by TESS.[10][7][11][12]
Stellar System[]
DS Tucanae is a visual binary.[3] The binary consists of a G6V primary and a K3V secondary separated by 5".[13] Based on radial velocity measurements it was suggested that the secondary itself is a binary, but later studies could not find evidence for this claim.[7]
Physical properties[]
High levels of magnetic activity, a strong 6708Å lithium line, and the position on the color-magnitude diagram, slightly above the main sequence, strongly support a young age of the system.[11]
