V1291 Aquilae is a single[10] star in the equatorial constellation of Aquila. It has a yellow-white hue and is dimly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude that fluctuates around 5.65.[3] Based on parallax measurements, it is located at a distance of approximately 278 light years from the Sun. The star it is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −22 km/s.[2]
In 1962, Helmut A. Abt and John C. Gloson published data showing that the star's brightness varied.[11] Based on that publication, the star was given its variable star designation, V1291 Aquilae, in 1972.[12]
This is a magnetic chemically peculiar star, or Ap star, with a stellar classification of F0VpSrCrEu,[5] matching an F-type main-sequence star with abundance anomalies of strontium, chromium, and europium in the spectrum. It is a variable star of type Alpha2 Canum Venaticorum that ranges in visual magnitude from 5.61 down to 5.67[4] with a period of 223.826 days. This is most likely the mean rotational period of the star.[1] V1291 Aquilae was one of the first Ap stars discovered with a period of more than 100 days.[13] It shows a surface magnetic field strength of Script error: No such module "val"..[7]
