The primary star is reported by Mechler (1974) to be a metal-poor light-variable while the secondary is reported to be normal. Recent measures at the U.S. Naval Observatory tend to confirm the evidence for a common proper motion. Both stars have constant radial velocities but with means that differ by 5.0 km/s; it is not clear whether this difference provides evidence against common space motions. The spectral type of the primary is F0 IV with A3 V metallic lines, while that of the secondary is F1 Vp(G-band strong). Thus both stars are abnormal for reasons not known.
