109 Piscium is a yellow hued G-type main-sequence star located about 108 light-years away in the zodiac constellation of Pisces. It is near the lower limit of visibility to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 6.27.[2] The star is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −45.5 km/s.[4] It has one known exoplanet.[10]
With a stellar classification of G3 Va,[3] this is a Sun-like star with a similar mass[6] but a 91%[7] larger radius. (Cowley and Bidelman (1979) had this classified as a subgiant star that is leaving the main sequence.[11]) It is 6.75[6] billion years old with a higher abundance of iron[4] and a low projected rotational velocity of 1.3 km/s.[5] The star is radiating 2.9[7] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,442 K.[7]
