V Centauri (V Cen) is a Classical Cepheid variable, a type of variable star, in the constellation Centaurus. Its apparent magnitude is 6.72, and it is approximately 2,500 light-years (800 parsecs) away based on parallax. According to the South African Astronomical Observatory, the chemical composition was derived as being high in sodium (Na) and aluminium (Al) and low in magnesium (Mg). Following a normal composition for a Cepheid star, V Cen does not have any unusual characteristics. V Centauri's composition was observed alongside six other Classical Cepheid variable stars with the support of Russian, Chilean, and Ukrainian observatories.

  • V Centauri är en pulserande variabel av Delta Cephei-typ (DCEP) i stjärnbilden Kentauren. Stjärnan har en visuell magnitud som varierar mellan +6,43 och 7,21 med en period av 5,49393 dygn. (sv)
  • 半人馬座V,又名CP-56 6296,HD 127297、SAO 241777、HR 5421,是半人馬座的一颗恒星,视星等为6.93,位于銀經316.44,銀緯3.31,其B1900.0坐标为赤經14h 25m 22.8s,赤緯-56° 3.31′ 39″。 (zh)
  • V del Centaure (V Centauri) és un estel variable a la constel·lació de Centaure. Semblant a Zeta dels Bessons (ζ Geminorum) o β Doradus, és una cefeida la lluentor de la qual oscil·la entre magnitud aparent +6,43 i +7,21 en un període de 5,4938 dies. En aquesta classe de variables polsants, existeix una relació, anomenada llei període-lluminositat, que vincula directament la seva magnitud absoluta amb el seu període de pulsació, la qual cosa les converteix en importants candeles estàndard per mesurar distàncies en l'Univers.

  • V Centauri (V Cen / HD 127297 / HR 5421)​ es una estrella variable en la constelación de Centauro. Semejante a Mekbuda (ζ Geminorum) o β Doradus, es una cefeida cuyo brillo oscila entre magnitud aparente +6,43 y +7,21 en un período de 5,4938 días.​En esta clase de variables pulsantes, existe una relación, llamada , que vincula directamente su magnitud absoluta con su período de pulsación, lo que las convierte en importantes candelas estándar para medir distancias en el Universo.

  • V Centauri é uma estrela variável na constelação de Centaurus. Uma variável Cefeida, sua magnitude aparente visual varia entre 6,43 e 7,21 ao longo de um período de 5,493839 dias. De acordo com as medições de paralaxe pela sonda Gaia, está a uma distância de 720 ± 11 parsecs (2347 ± 37 anos-luz) da Terra, enquanto estimativas indiretas dão uma distância próxima de 700 parsecs. Esta estrela é muito provavelmente um membro do aglomerado estelar NGC 5662, uma vez que ambos estão à mesma distância da Terra e possuem movimento pelo espaço, metalicidade e idade semelhantes. (pt)
