HD 27322, also known as HR 1342, is a binary star located in the northern circumpolar constellation Camelopardalis. The visible component is faintly visible to the naked eye as a white-hued point of light with an apparent magnitude of 5.92.[2] The object is located relatively close at a distance of 313 light-years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements,[1] and it is drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of approximately −13 km/s.[7] At its current distance, HD 27322's brightness is diminished by 0.24 magnitudes due to interstellar extinction[14] and it has an absolute magnitude of +0.98.[8]

HD 27322 A has a stellar classification of A3 V,[4] indicating that it is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star that is generating energy via hydrogen fusion at its core. Abt & Morell (1995) gave a hotter and slightly more evolved classification of A2 IV-V,[5] indicating that it is an A-type star with a luminosity class intermediate between a main sequence star and a subgiant. At the age of 640 million years,[11] HD 27322 A has completed 79.5% of its main sequence lifetime.[3] It has 1.9 times the mass of the Sun[9] and 2.64 times the radius of the Sun.[10] It radiates 54.7 times the luminosity of the Sun[1] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,414 K.[3] HD 27322 A is metal deficient with an iron abundance 56% that of the Sun's ([Fe/H] = −0.25)[12] and it spins rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 130 km/s.[5]

The object was generally classified as a solitary star.[15] However, evidence of HD 27322 being a binary first arose when an X-ray emission with a luminosity of 3.22×1020 W was detected around the star.[16] A-type stars are expected to be X-ray quiet, so it might be coming from a hidden companion. A 2016 spectroscopic survey detected a companion around HD 27322.[9] It has 1.3 times the mass of the Sun and it has an effective temperature of 6,492 K.[9] HD 27322 B is metal deficient with a [Fe/H] of −0.5 and it spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 20 km/s.[9]
