23 Ursae Majoris, or 23 UMa, is a binary star system in the constellation Ursa Major,[4] located is approximately 77.7 light years from the Sun.[1] It has the Bayer designation h Ursae Majoris; 23 Ursae Majoris is the Flamsteed designation. The system is visible to the naked eye as a yellow-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of +3.65.[2] It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −10 km/s.[2]

The primary component is a yellow-white F-type subgiant with an apparent magnitude of +3.65. It has 1.9 times the Sun's mass, 2.9 times the Sun's radius and is emitting 15 times the luminosity of the Sun[5] at an effective temperature of 6,651 K.[3] Orbiting at an angular separation of 22.7 arcseconds is the 9th magnitude secondary companion. There is a magnitude +10.5 optical companion at an angular separation of 99.6 arcseconds.

Nomenclature

With τ, υ, φ, θ, e and f, it composed the Arabic asterism Sarīr Banāt al-Na'sh, the Throne of the daughters of Na'sh, and Al-Haud, the Pond.[6] According to the catalogue of stars in the Technical Memorandum 33-507 - A Reduced Star Catalog Containing 537 Named Stars, Al-Haud was the title for seven stars : f as Alhaud I, τ as Alhaud II, e as Alhaud III, this star (h) as Alhaud IV, θ as Alhaud V, υ as Alhaud VI and φ as Alhaud VII .[7]
