HD 201772, also known as HR 8104, is a yellowish-white hued star located in the southern constellation of Microscopium. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.26,[3] making it one of the brighter members of this generally faint constellation. The object is located relatively close at a distance of 111 light-years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements[2] but is approaching closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −41 km/s.[6] At its current distance, HD 201772's brightness is diminished by 0.11 magnitudes due to interstellar dust.[14]

The star has been given multiple stellar classifications over the years. It was given the luminosity class of a subgiant and main sequence star (IV/V; IV-V)[15][4] and a dwarf (V).[16][17] Most sources generally agree that it is a F5 star. Richard O. Gray and colleagues give HD 201772 a class of F6 V Fe−0.9 CH−0.5, which indicates that it is a F-type main-sequence star with an underabundance of iron and CH molecules in its spectrum.[5]

It has 1.47 times the mass of the Sun[18] and an enlarged radius of 2.2 R☉.[7] It radiates 7.8 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,519 K.[9] At an age of 2.5 billion years, HD 201722 is currently 1.33 magnitudes above the ZAMS, consistent with a star that is evolving off the main sequence.[11] The star has an iron abundance 66% that of the Sun,[10] making it metal deficient. It spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 10 km/s.[11]

HD 201772 is suspected to be a spectroscopic binary consisting of the subgiant described above and an ordinary F6 V star with a mass of 1.31 M☉.[19] However, the stars have no separation or an orbital period.[20] This is because the companion might be a result of spectrum contamination, so HD 201772 is more likely to be a solitary star.[21]
