RS Persei is a red supergiant variable star located in the Double Cluster in Perseus. The star's apparent magnitude varies from 7.82 to 10.0, meaning it is never visible to the naked eye.

Location

[edit]

RS Persei is a member of the cluster NGC 884, χ Persei, one half of the famous Double Cluster.[10]

Variability

RS Persei is classified as a semiregular variable star, with its brightness varying from magnitude 7.82 to 10.0 over 245 days,[2] Detailed studies show that it also pulsates with a long secondary period of 4,200±1,500 days.[12]

Properties

[edit]

RS Persei is a large cool star with a temperature of 3,500 K. This makes it luminous, although much of its radiation is emitted in the infrared. In 2005, RS Per was calculated to have a bolometric luminosity of 145,000 L and a radius around 1,000 R.[6] More recently, 2014 calculations across all wavelengths gives the star a lower luminosity of 77,600+9,500
−8,400
 L
based on an assumed distance, and a radius of 770±30 R based on the measured angular diameter and luminosity.[7] A 2023 paper gives an even smaller luminosity of 59,000 L. [9]

The angular diameter of RS Persei was measured at 3.4±0.03 mas. At a distance of 1,497 parsecs, this corresponds to a radius of 547 R.[5] Another paper from the same author gives 3.34+0.07
−0.09
 mas
and a radius of 775 R, altought the distance used isn't is mentioned.[8] It is surrounded by dust that has condensed from material lost by the star.[13]

RS Persei has sometimes been considered to be a highly evolved low mass Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) star,[14] but calculations of its current mass suggest that it is a true red supergiant. NGC 244 is also too young to host AGB stars.[7]
