HD 4203 is a single star in the equatorial constellation of Pisces, near the northern constellation border with Andromeda. It has a yellow hue and is too faint to be viewed with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 8.70.[1] The distance to this object is 265 light years based on parallax,[2] but it is drifting closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of −14 km/s.[1]

This object is an ordinary G-type subgiant star with a stellar classification of G5V. It is photometrically-stable star with an inactive chromosphere, and has a much higher than normal metallicity.[4] The star is roughly 6.3 billion years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 5.6 km/s.[6] It has 12% more mass than the Sun and a 35% greater radius. HD 4203 is radiating 1.68 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,666 K.[5]

Planetary system

Radial velocity observations of this star during 2000–2001 found a variability that suggesting an orbited sub-stellar companion, designated component 'b'.[4] Additional observations led to a refined orbital period of 432 days with a relatively high eccentricity of 0.52 for a gas giant companion.[8] The presence of a second companion was deduced from residuals in the data, then confirmed in 2014. However, the orbital elements for this companion, component 'c', are poorly constrained.[9]
