Beta Lupi
Beta Lupi (β Lupi, β Lup), or Kekouan, is a star in the southern constellation of Lupus. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 2.7,〔 making it readily visible to the naked eye. Based upon parallax measurements, this star is located at a distance of about from Earth.〔
==Properties==
The stellar classification of B2 III indicates this is a giant star.〔 The effective temperature of the star's outer envelope is 24,090 K,〔 giving it the blue-white hue of a B-type star.〔 With an age of around 25 million years,〔 it is near the end of its hydrogen phase, where hydrogen is fused into the element helium, and transferring into a red supergiant star. At about 8.8〔 solar masses, it may have enough mass to end its life as a Type II supernova, but there is the possibility of Beta Lupi becoming a white dwarf.〔
This is a multi-period Beta Cephei variable with a dominant oscillation period of 0.232 days.〔 It is a proper motion member of the Upper-Centaurus Lupus sub-group in the Scorpius-Centaurus OB association, the nearest such co-moving association of massive stars to the Sun.〔 Beta Lupi has a high proper motion of more than 50 mas per year, suggesting a significant transverse velocity.〔
It lies close to the supernova remnant SN 1006.
