A light curve for Phi1 Lupi, plotted from Hipparcos data[10]

Phi1 Lupi is a solitary[11] star in the southern constellation of Lupus. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 3.58.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 11.86 mas as seen from Earth, it is located around 275 light years from the Sun. The star is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −29 km/s.[5] It has an absolute magnitude of −1.55.[6]

This is an evolved K-type giant star with a stellar classification of K5 III,[3] which means it has used up its core hydrogen and has expanded. At present it has 40 times the radius of the Sun.[7] It is a variable star of unknown type, with an amplitude of 0.008 in visual magnitude and a period of 4.82 days.[12] The star is radiating 711[4] times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 3,894 K.[8]
