4 Cygni is a binary star[7] system in the northern constellation of Cygnus. It is a faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.17.[2] The distance to 4 Cygni, as determined from its annual parallax shift of 5.8 mas,[1] is about 560 light years.

This is single-lined spectroscopic binary with an orbital period of 35 days and an eccentricity of 0.45.[7] The visible component is a B-type star with a stellar classification of B8p Si (Fe II),[4] where the suffix notation indicates this is type of chemically peculiar star known as a silicon star. It displays an overabundance of iron in the visual spectrum, while the star appears helium-weak in the ultraviolet.[4]

4 Cygni A is an Alpha2 Canum Venaticorum variable that varies by 0.02 magnitude over a period of 0.68674 days.[5] The average quadratic field strength of the magnetic field is (254.7±57.2)×10−4 T.[11] With an age of 145 million years, it has four[3] times the mass of the Sun and five[8] times the Sun's radius. It radiates around 501 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 12,190 K.[3]
