Star system features
g Stars orbit about each other in an eccentric orbit one every 17.36 days
g Believed to be a member of the Ursa Major Moving Group of stars that have a common motion through space

Known planets
g A: An excess of infrared radiation at 24 μm and 70 μm has been detected about Star A. This suggests the presence of a large disc of dust and material around Star A, prompting speculation of a planetary or proto-planetary system similar to that currently assumed around Vega. How the binary-star dynamic would affect such a system is the subject of intense debate.
