HD 9289 is a white-hued variable star in the constellation of Cetus. It has the variable-star designation BW Ceti (abbreviated to BW Cet). With an apparent magnitude of 9.38, it is too faint to be observed by the naked eye from Earth. It is located at a distance of approximately 1,000 light-years (310 parsecs) according to Gaia EDR3 parallax measurements, and is moving away from the Solar System at a heliocentric radial velocity of 11.352 km/s.

Stellar properties

[edit]

The star was first classified as a rapidly oscillating Ap star (roAp) in 1993 when it was found to pulsate at multiple periods, all clustered around 10.5 minutes.[10] Additional observations confirmed the presence of rotational amplitude modulation, similar to the well-studied roAp star HR 1217.[11]

Binary companion

[edit]

In 2012, a previously undetected visual companion was discovered at a separation of 0.441 arcseconds to the east-northeast of HD 9289. The probability that the two stars are unrelated and aligned by chance is very low (2.16×10−4 %), therefore the pair are most certainly part of a wide binary system. The secondary star is about 1.70 magnitudes fainter than the primary when observed in the K-band.[5]
