The primary component, Beta Trianguli Australis A, is a yellow-white F-type giant with an apparent magnitude of +2.83. It has a 14th magnitude companion separated from the primary by 155 arcseconds. In astronomy, stellar classification is a classification of stars based initially on photospheric temperature and its associated spectral characteristics, and subsequenly refined in terms of other characteristics. ... According to the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, a red giant is a large non-main sequence star of stellar classification K or M; so-named because of the reddish appearance of the cooler giants. Examples include Aldebaran and Arcturus. ...
