Psi9 Aurigae, Latinised from ψ9 Aurigae, is a star in the northern constellation of Auriga. It is dimly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.75.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 2.59 mas,[1] the distance to this star is approximately 1,300 light-years (400 parsecs).

The spectrum of Psi9 Aurigae matches a giant star with a stellar classification of B8 IIIe.[3] The 'e' suffix indicates this is a Be star that shows emission lines of hydrogen in its spectrum. This is caused by a circumstellar shell of hot gas. The emission undergoes variability on a time scale of sixteen years.[3]
