Tau2 Serpentis, Latinized from τ2 Serpentis, is a star in the constellation of Serpens, located approximately 480 light-years from the Sun.[1] It is a challenge to view with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 6.22.[2] The star is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −19 km/s.[2]
This object is a late B-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of B9V.[3] It is a probable Lambda Boötis star.[2][10] The star is 278[8] million years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 154 km/s.[6] It has nearly three times the mass and radius of the Sun.[6][7] Tau2 Serpentis is radiating 96[6] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,839 K.[6]
There is evidence of a possible companion, which is contributing about 15% to the total emission of the system.[11]
