HD 132563

HD 132563 is a triple star system in the constellation Boötes. The two resolvable components of this system are designated HD 132563 AC and HD 132563 B. The primary star, HD 132563 AC, is actually a spectroscopic binary with a period of more than 15 years and an orbital eccentricity of greater than 0.65. The smaller member of this tightly orbiting pair has about 55% the mass of the Sun.
