12 Boötis is a spectroscopic binary[7] in the constellation Boötes. It is approximately 122 light years from Earth.[1]
12 Boötis is a yellow-white F-type subgiant with an apparent magnitude of +4.82. It is a spectroscopic binary pair which orbit around its centre of mass once every 9.6045 days,[3] with an estimated separation of 0.0035".[8] The two stars have similar masses around Template:Solar mass, both are slightly hotter than the Sun and about twice as large.[4]
A further companion, 12 Boötis B, was reported with a separation of approximately one arcsecond in 1989, but subsequent surveys have repeatedly failed to detect this companion.[3]
