Kappa2 Coronae Australis

Kappa2 Coronae Australis is a star in the southern constellation of Corona Australis. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, blue-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.67. The distance to this star is approximately 700 light years based on parallax. The radial velocity is poorly constrained, but the star appears to be moving closer with a radial velocity of around −15 km/s.
This object is a late B-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of B9V. It is radiating 460 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,844 K. Kappa2 Coronae Australis forms a visual double star with Kappa1 Coronae Australis, also known as "HR 6952". 1 and 2 are located at 21.4 arcminutes from each other. The double is only in the line of sight, however, as Kappa1 is much more distant than the dimmer and closer Kappa2.
