Kappa Cygni (κ Cyg) is a star in the northern constellation of Cygnus. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 3.8,〔 which is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. In the constellation, it forms the tip of Cygnus the swan's left wing.〔 The radiant of the minor Kappa Cygnids meteor shower is located about 5° north of this star.〔 Examination of this star's spectrum show it to match a stellar classification of G9 III,〔 with the 'III' luminosity class revealing that it has consumed the hydrogen fuel at its core and expanded into the giant star stage of its stellar evolution. It is known to vary in luminosity, but only by about 0.01 to 0.02 magnitudes.〔 The measured angular diameter of this star, after correction for limb darkening, is .〔 At an estimated distance of based on parallax measurements,〔 this yields a physical size of about 8–9 times the radius of the Sun.〔 The outer envelope has an effective temperature of 4,920 K,〔 giving it the yellow-orange hue of a star near the transition from a G- to a K-type classification.〔 ==References== } \\ & \approx 17\cdot R_ \end〕 }} 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kappa Cygni」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
