HD 65750, also known as V341 Carinae is a bright red giant star in the constellation Carina. It is surrounded by a prominent reflection nebula, known as IC 2220, nicknamed the Toby Jug Nebula.

Characteristics

A light curve for V341 Carinae, plotted from Hipparcos data.

Olin Jeuck Eggen and Norman Roy Stokes announced their discovery that the star's brightness varies, in 1970. It was given its variable star designation, V341 Carinae, in 1975. HD 65750 is located about 900 light years away, and has an apparent magnitude that varies between 6.2 and 7.1 and a metallicity just 40% of the Sun. When it is at its brightest, it is very faintly visible to the naked eye of a person with excellent observing conditions. It is part of the Diamond Cluster moving group.

The star has a radial velocity of 20 km/s. The star has a radius over 100 times wider than the Sun's; were it to replace the Sun, HD 65750 would extend past the orbit of Mercury.

Nebulae

The nebulae is a mystery as the variations in nebulae brightness appear to be unrelated to the host star. One theory is that rather than being an accreting protoplanetary disk the star may be an evolved star that is losing material.
