7 Aquilae is a star in the equatorial constellation of Aquila,[6] located 359 light years away from the Sun. 7 Aquilae is the Flamsteed designation. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-white hued star with a baseline apparent visual magnitude of 6.9. The star is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −21 km/s.
Houk and Swift (1999) find a stellar classification of F0IV,[4] matching an F-type subgiant star that has exhausted the hydrogen at its core and is evolving into a giant. Fox Machado et al. (2010) found a class of F0V, suggesting it is still a main sequence star.[3] This is a pulsating variable star of the Delta Scuti type.[3] It has double[3] the mass of the Sun and 2.7[5] times the Sun's radius. The detection of an infrared excess suggests a debris disk with a mean temperature of 140 K is orbiting about 16.30 AU away from the host star.[5]
