11 Persei is a single[11][8] star in the constellation of Perseus, located about 418 light years away from the Sun. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, blue-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.76.[2]

This is a chemically peculiar mercury-manganese star.[12][6] Cowley (1972) found a stellar classification of B7 III(p?) (Hg?),[4] while Hube (1970) had B8 IV,[13] and Appenzeller (1967) showed B6 V.[14] Stellar models indicate this is a young B-type main sequence star[3] with an estimated age of around 51[9] million years. It has a low rotation rate, showing a projected rotational velocity of 4.50 km/s.[8] The star has 3.8[3] times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 210[3] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 14,550 K.[6]
