HD 197027 has a stellar classification of G3 V, indicating that it is an ordinary G-type main-sequence star like the Sun. It has only 97% the mass of the Sun[7] but 108% of its radius.[8] It shines at 119% the luminosity of the Sun[6] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,718 K,[9] similar to the Sun's 5,778 K. HD 197027's metallicity – elements heavier than helium – is similar to the Sun.[9] At an older age of 6.92 billion years, it spins with a projected rotational velocity of about km/s.[9]

Since its measured properties of this star are very similar to those of the Sun, it has been considered a candidate older solar twin.[11] The abundances of 21 elements overall are more similar to the Sun than any other known solar twin. [citation needed] Its Iron Abundance is -0.03 with an error value of 0.02 Fe/H. (The value comes from the Hipparcos Extended Catalog.)[12]
