Upsilon Lupi,

arc seconds along a position angle of 40°.[3]

The brighter member, component A, is a

quadratic field strength of (764.7±311.3)×10−4 T.[11] The star is radiating 113 times the solar luminosity from its outer atmosphere at an effective temperature of 10,049 K.[7]

The magnitude 10.9 companion star, component B, has a visual magnitude of 10.90.[3] It may be the source of the X-ray emission detected coming from these coordinates.[12]
