In fact, the temperature of this star is twice that of the sun, its mass is much larger than the sun, and its brightness in the visible light band is about 40 times that of the sun. According to the excessive emission of infrared ray, it is speculated that it may have a fragment disk, similar to Vega It's not clear why Johann Bayer This star is designated as alpha star, not Sagittarius ε or Sagittarius σ. This makes some ancient star maps occasionally depict two stars, Alpha Sagittarius and Beta Sagittarius, which are much brighter than they actually are, because they are in the Northern Europe It is invisible, nor can it be seen in Tainan.

This is a single line Spectral binary System. Roentgen satellite The whole day patrol found that Tianyuansan was launching too many X-ray These X-rays are not expected to come from stars at this spectral level. The most likely explanation is that the companion star is an active Main sequence star Or a star that has just reached the main sequence. [2]
