ι2 Scorpii, Latinised as Iota2 Scorpii, is a single[11] star in tail of the zodiac constellation of Scorpius. It has an apparent visual magnitude of +4.82,[2] and is visible to the naked eye. Because of parallax measurement errors, the distance to this star is only approximately known: it lies around 2,500 light years away from the Sun. It has a visual companion, a magnitude 11.0 star at an angular separation of 31.60 arcseconds along a position angle of 36°, as of 2000.[12]
In the literature, there are two different stellar classifications for this star: A2 Ib[3] and A6 Ib.[4] In either case it is an A-type supergiant star with an estimated age of 30[4] million years and a mass 8.8 times that of the Sun.[4] It shines with a luminosity 5,798 times the Sun's from an outer atmosphere that has an effective temperature of Script error: No such module "val"..[7] As with other stars of its type, ι2 Scorpii varies slightly in brightness, showing an amplitude of 0.05 in magnitude.[13]
