Pi Arae, Latinized from πぱい Arae, is the Bayer designation for a star in the southern constellation of Ara. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of +5.25.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 46.30 mas as seen from Earth,[1] it is located 70 light years from the Sun. It is most likely moving closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of −3 km/s.[4]

The stellar classification of this star is A5 IV-V,[3] indicating the spectrum displays the hybrid features of both a main sequence and a more evolved subgiant star. Pi Arae is an estimated 319[6] million years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 54.1 km/s.[8] The star has 1.73[6] times the mass of the Sun and 1.90[7] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 13.3[5] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of about 8,215 K.[6]

Pi Arae displays an excess emission of infrared radiation, which may be explained by circumstellar dust.[10] The thermal emission matches a two component model, consisting of an inner disk of warm crystalline silicate dust and an outer colder disk of dirty ice. The inner disk has a temperature of 173 K and is orbiting roughly 9.1 AUえーゆー from the host star. The outer disk is 77 K and orbits at a distance of about 117.3 AUえーゆー. The small size of some of the dust grains indicate the inner disk may have formed relatively recently from collisions between orbiting planetesimals.[11]

Located 55 arc minutes to the north of Pi Arae is the globular cluster NGC 6397.[12]
