Beta Centauri

Beta Centauri  (β Centauri, β Cen) vel HadarCaroli H. Schier Globus coelestis Arabicus: qui Dresdae in Regio Museo Mathematico asservatur, Lipsiae 1865, p. 40., interdum et Agena, est stella constellationis Centauri. A Sole circa 392 annos luce mensos distat. 

Stella trinaria est. Stella systematis principalis gigas caeruleus et albus est; anno 1935  stellam alteram aperuit, quae a principali 1,3 secunda anguli distat. Periodis sidericus longior est, nam tempore observationis stellae vix moventur. Stella principalis binaria spectroscopica est; periodum sidericum 352 dies habet.
