HD 104555, also known as HR 4595, is a star located in the southern circumpolar constellation Octans. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.02,[2] allowing it to be faintly visible to the naked eye. Based on parallax measurements from Gaia Data Release 3, it is estimated to be 336 light years distant.[1] It appears to be receding from the Solar System, having a heliocentric radial velocity of 17.1 km/s.[6]

This is an evolved, orange hued giant star with a stellar classification of K3 III.[4] It is currently on the horizontal branch,[3] generating energy via helium fusion at its core. It has twice the mass of the Sun but at 955 million years old, it has expanded to 9.82 times its girth.[8] It radiates 60 times the luminosity of the Sun[9] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,497 K.[10] HD 10455 has an iron abundance 12% below solar levels, making it slightly metal deficient.[8] Like most giants, it spins slowly, having a projected rotational velocity lower than km/s.[11]

HIP 58713 is an 8th magnitude co-moving star located 24.8 away along a position angle of 146°.[14] It is a main sequence star with a spectral class of F8, and is estimated to be around the same distance as HD 104555.[15]
