30 Ari A

An unsourced sentence in the text describes both as F-type main-sequence stars based on luminosity, yet SIMBAD lists the A component as a giant. Further, the luminosity listed for the A component in the Details section of the starbox (1.991 solar) is consistent with neither the absolute magnitude (abs mag of 3.46 suggests a luminosity well in excess of 3 solar) nor the difference in magnitude between the two stars (7.09 - 6.48 = 0.61, which indicates 30 Ari A should be at least 75% brighter than 30 Ari B, rather than nearly the same). Given these discrepancies, I've updated the starbox with the data from SIMBAD and altered the luminosity of the A component. Pfhreak (talk) 15:38, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

See the paper Guenther et al. (2009) "A substellar component orbiting the F-star 30 Arietis B" (referenced in the article) for more about this:

30 Ari A is listed in the SIMBAD database with a spectral type F6III. If true, the object should have an absolute brightness (Mv) of +1.4 mag. Using again the Hipparcos distance, the relative magnitude (mv) would than be 4.4 mag, which is inconsistent with the observed brightness (Table 1). The V − J colours are 0.808 ± 0.02 for 30 Ari A and 1.02 ± 0.02 for 30 Ari B, and the V − K colours are 1.01±0.3 and 1.27±0.02 for components A and B, respectively. The colours are also inconsistent with a giant star but consistent with a main-sequence star. Using our high resolution spectra (see Sect. 3) and following the method described in Frasca et al. (2003) and Gandolfi et al. (2008), we find that 30 Ari A is an F5V star and 30 Ari B, and 30 Ari B and F6V star (Figs. 1; 2). Thus, the brightness, colours and the results of the spectroscopy show that both components are still on the main sequence stars.

Quadruple star

Apparently, some new vital information about the star system came available. http://www.nasa.gov/jpl/planet-reared-by-four-parent-stars/index.html#.VPd3LM2glZ4 --Artman40 (talk) 21:26, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
