36 G. Doradus (HD 40409) is a suspected astrometric binary[8] star system in the southern constellation of Dorado. It is a faint system but visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.65.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 36.60 mas,[1] it is located 89 light years away from the Sun. It is moving further away with a heliocentric radial velocity of +25 km/s.[2] The system has a relatively high proper motion, traversing the celestial sphere at the rate of 0.57 arcseconds per year along a position angle of 14.51°.[9]
Based on the stellar classification of K2 III assigned by Gray et al. (2006),[3] the visible component is a K-type giant star. In contrast, Keenan and McNeil (1989) gave it a somewhat less evolved classification of K2 III–IV.[10] It is about eight billion years old[6] with 28% more mass than the Sun,[5] and has expanded to 4.76 times the Sun's radius. The star is radiating 10[5] times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,807 K.[4]
