2MASS J20360829−3607115 or DH Microscopii is a solitary[12] star in the constellation Microscopium. It has an average apparent magnitude of 11.56,[4] making it readily visible in telescopes but not to the naked eye. The object is relatively close at a distance of 55 light years[1] but is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 14.9 km/s.[7]
The object was originally catalogized as an active galaxy nucleus candidate.[13] However, observation afterwards revealed that it was instead a red dwarf with a stellar classification of M3 Ve. This class indicates that DH Mircoscopii is a M-type main-sequence star with emission lines in its spectrum. It has 42% the mass of the Sun[8] and 46% the radius of the Sun.[9] Despite being half the size of the Sun, DH Microscopii only has a luminosity 3.2% that of the Sun and has an effective temperature of 3,537 K.[8] This gives the star a red hue when viewed through a telescope. DH Micro is a young star with an age of 12 million years[10] and spins with a projected rotational velocity of 9.6 km/s.[3]
DH Microscopii is a BY Draconis variable[2] — young G to M type stars whose starspot activity cause variations in their brigtness. It flucates by 0.3 magnitudes within 2 days.[14]
