Pi2 Columbae is a binary star[9] system in the southern constellation of Columba. It is a dim but visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.50.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 13.43 mas as seen from Earth,[1] this star is located about 243 light years from the Sun. The pair have an angular separation of 0.1[3] arc seconds with the primary being an A-type main-sequence star of spectral class A0 V,[3] while the secondary component is a similar A-type star.[9] The system is a source of X-ray emission with a luminosity of ×1020 W, which is considered unusual since A-type stars are not expected to display 184.3magnetic activity.[3]
