A golden-orange K-type star (K3, possibly IIIb) 95 times more luminous than the Sun, and 21 times its diameter. Also sometimes referred to as Demisiv after its single inhabited world (the seventh planet out) and the species that inhabits it.
16 Aur is a spectroscopic binary, its smaller companion taking about a year to orbit it; and it also travels in company with several other stars that are gravitationally associated. (For more info see the SAO / Nasa Astrophysics article.)
