HD 109271 is a wide binary star system in the constellation of Virgo. The brighter member of the binary has a pair of orbiting exoplanets. With an apparent visual magnitude of 8.05,[2] it cannot be seen with the naked eye. Parallax measurements made by Gaia put the star at a distance of 181 light-years (55 parsecs) away from the Sun, but it is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −5 km/s.[4] The system shows a high proper motion, traversing the celestial sphere at an angular rate of 0.232 arcsec yr−1.[7]
The primary component is an ordinary G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G5 V. It is a much older star than the Sun with an age of about 7.3 billion years, and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 2.7 km/s.[2] This star has 7% more mass than the Sun and a 30% greater girth.[5] The abundance of iron, a measure of the star's metallicity, is similar but slightly higher than in the Sun.[2] It is radiating 1.65[5] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of around 5,783 K.[2]
In 2020, a white dwarf companion of 0.6 M☉ was found orbiting the primary at an angular separation of 5.4″ along a position angle of 267°. At the distance of this system, this corresponds to a projected separation of 304 AU. That is, they are physically separated by at least this distance. Additional stellar companions are ruled out down to a separation of 0.15″ from the primary.[3]
