11 Camelopardalis is a single[8] star in the northern circumpolar constellation of Camelopardalis, located around 710 light years away from the Sun as determined by parallax. It has the variable star designation BV Camelopardalis; 11 Camelopardalis is the Flamsteed designation. This object is visible to the naked eye as a faint, blue-white hued star with a baseline apparent visual magnitude of +5.22.[2] It forms a double star with 12 Camelopardalis, which is only 3 arcminutes away.

11 Camelopardalis and its reddish companion 12 Camelopardalis

This is a main sequence Be star with a stellar classification of B3 Ve.[3] Samus et al. (2017) classify it as a Be variable, rather than a Gamma Cassiopeiae type, and it ranges in magnitude from a peak of 5.10 down to 5.22.[4] The star is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 95 km/s,[5] but is being viewed from an extreme pole-on position. Hence it is spinning much more rapidly than indicated. Outbursts of hydrogen emission lines have been observed, as well as rapid changes in hydrogen line profiles.[9] It is 25[6] million years old with around six[5] times the mass of the Sun.
