G Scorpii (abbreviated G Sco), also named Fuyue, is a giant star in the constellation of Scorpius. It has an apparent magnitude of +3.19. It is approximately 126 light-years from the Sun.
Nomenclature
G Scorpii is the star's Bayer designation. It was formerly situated in the constellation of Telescopium where it was designated γ Telescopii, Latinised to Gamma Telescopii. It was resited in Scorpius and redesignated G Scorpii by Benjamin Apthorp Gould. On 30 June 2017 it was included in the List of IAU-approved Star Names.
G Scorpii bore the traditional name Fuyue (simplified Chinese: 傅说; traditional Chinese: 傅說) in ancient China. Fu Yue was a former slave that became a high-ranking minister to Shang dynasty ruler Wu Ding.
Properties
G Scorpii is an orange K-type giant. The measured angular diameter is 3.94±0.21 mas. At the estimated distance of this system, this yields a physical size of about 16 times the radius of the Sun. Calculations based on its physical properties give a diameter of about 20 R☉. With an effective surface temperature of 4,535 K, it has a bolometric luminosity of 93 L☉.
Evolutionary models show that G Scorpii has probably left the red giant branch and is now fusing helium in its core. This makes it a red clump star, at the cool end of the horizontal branch.
Just 5 arcminutes to the east is the globular cluster NGC 6441. At magnitude 3.2, G Scorpii is around 40 times brighter than the entire globular cluster.
