This is a red giant star with a spectral classification of M3 III.[3] The interferometry-measured angular diameter of this star is 6.70 ± 0.15 mas,[10] which, at its estimated distance, equates to a physical radius of about 137 times the radius of the Sun.[a] It is classified as a semi-regular variable star and its brightness varies by an amplitude of 0.0636 in magnitude.[11] The identified pulsation periods are 32.3, 38.5, and 44.9 days.[12]
