Star in the constellation of Lupus
HD 143699 is a single[ 7] star in the southern constellation of Lupus . It is a dim star but visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.90.[ 2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 9.2 mas ,[ 1] it is located around 350 light years away. It is most likely (90%[ 8] chance) a member of the Upper Centaurus–Lupus[ 9] subgroup of the Sco OB2 moving group .
This star has a stellar classification of B5/7 III/IV,[ 3] suggesting it is an evolving star that is entering the giant stage . However, according to Zorec and Royer (2012) it is only 56% of the way through its main sequence lifespan.[ 4] It is a chemically peculiar magnetic B star,[ 10] showing an averaged quadratic field strength of (167.2± 140.4)× 10−3 T .[ 11] Helium-weak, it displays an underabundance of helium in its spectrum .[ 12] Radio emissions have been detected from this source.[ 10]
HD 143699 has 4.3[ 4] times the mass of the Sun and 4.4[ 5] times the Sun's radius . It has a high rate of spin with a projected rotational velocity of 123 km/s.[ 4] The star is radiating 438[ 4] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 14,521 K.[ 4]
