31 Boötis is a single[8] star in the northern constellation of Boötes,[7] located 470 light years from the Sun.[1] It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.86.[2] The object is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −16.5 km/s.[2] It was known to be part of a constellation between Virgo and Boötes named Mons Maenalus, it was also the brightest star in the constellation.
This is an evolved giant star with a stellar classification of G7 IIIa.[3] It is a suspected variable star of unknown type,[9] and is an X-ray source.[10] The star is 370[4] million years old with 3.27[4] times the mass of the Sun. Having exhausted the hydrogen at its core, the star has expanded to 23[1] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 275[1] times the luminosity of the Sun from its swollen photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,874 K.[1]
