Delta Trianguli
Delta Trianguli, Latinized from Delta Tri, is a spectroscopic binary star system approximately away in the constellation of Triangulum. The primary star is a yellow dwarf, while the secondary star is thought to be an orange dwarf. It has an apparent magnitude of +4.87 and forms an optical (line-of-sight) triple with Gamma Trianguli and 7 Trianguli. Stellar components. Delta Trianguli A is a main sequence star with a stellar classification of G0V and a mass similar to the Sun. The spectral characteristics of the smaller companion Delta Trianguli B are not well determined since the close  orbit makes observations difficult, with estimates of the spectral class ranging from G9V to K4V. The Delta Trianguli stars orbit their center of mass with an estimated separation of 0.106 AU; it is certainly less than one AU. The orbital period is 10.02 days and the eccentricity of the orbit is only 0.020. The orbit is inclined about 167° to the line of sight from Earth. A 2008 search for a tertiary companion to this system using an adaptive optics system on the VLT proved unsuccessful. Examination of the system in infrared light at 70 μm shows no excess  emission that would otherwise indicate the presence of a disk of orbiting dust. Naming. In Chinese, (), meaning "Heaven's Great General", refers to an asterism consisting of δ Trianguli γ Andromedae, φ Persei, 51 Andromedae, 49 Andromedae, χ Andromedae, υ Andromedae, τ Andromedae, 56 Andromedae, β Trianguli and γ Trianguli. Consequently, the Chinese name for δ Trianguli itself is (, .).
