1 Schmeer, Patrick Gaia EDR3 parallax 3.07 ± 0.22 mas (distance 325 ± 25 pc).
2 GCVS Team VB A (B 11.46m, 87", 84deg; C 7.56m, 97", 350deg). P var. Max = 2410640.42 + 10.15477d*E (JD2394600 - 2407150); Max = 2422366.187 + 10.15288d*E (JD2407150 - 22300); Max = 2426802.918 + 10.15172d*E (JD2422300 - 34500) [P.P.Parenago, Perem. Zvezdy 11, N4, 236, 1958.]; since JD2434500 - see Table. All the observations are satisfied also by the elements: Max = 2443785.444 + 10.150135d*E - 5.24d*10**(-7)*E**2 [L.Szabados, Bud Mitt N77, 1981.]. May by a DCEPS type variable.
