ET Andromedae is a binary star system star in the northern constellation of Andromeda.[14] It has an apparent visual magnitude of 6.48,[3] placing it at the nominal limit for visibility with the naked eye. The distance to this system can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of 5.42 mas,[2] which yields a value of 602 light years.
Variations in the radial velocity of this star suggest it is a single-lined spectroscopic binary system. This yields orbital elements with a period of 48.3 days and an eccentricity of 0.50. The a sin i value for the primary is 14.8 Gm (0.099 AU), where a is the semimajor axis and i is the (unknown) orbital inclination.[7]
The visible component is a well-studied magnetic chemically peculiar star[15] with a stellar classification of A0 Vp SiSr.[4] The SiSr notation indicates unusual abundances of silicon and strontium in the spectrum. It has a magnetic field with an average surface value of 3.2 kT.[16] The abundance of silicon varies depending on the viewing angle.[15]
In 1953, Sanford S. Provin announced that HD 219749 might be photometrically variable, based on observations made at Yerkes Observatory.[17] Variability was confirmed from Lowell Observatory measurements published by Karl D. Rakos in 1962.[18] The star is an Alpha2 Canum Venaticorum variable with a period of 1.618875 days.[19]
