31 Cygni, also known as ÿ<sup>1</sup> Cygni, Omicron<sup>1</sup> Cygni, ÿ<sup>2</sup> Cygni or V695 Cygni, is a ternary star system about 750 light years away in the constellation Cygnus.
The Bayer designation ÿ (omicron) has been variously applied to two or three of the stars 30, 31, and 32 Cygni. 31 Cygni has been designated, variously, as ÿ<sup>1</sup> or ÿ<sup>2</sup> Cygni — therefore for clarity, it is preferred to use the Flamsteed designation 31 Cygni.
31 Cygni consists of a visible pair of stars apart as of 2016, and the brighter of the two is also a spectroscopic binary. 31 Cygni A is also designated HD 192577 and HR 7735, while its 7th-magnitude visual companion is designated HD 192579. Some multiple star catalogues designate a 13th-magnitude star from 31 Cygni A as 31 Cygni B, and HD 192579 as 31 Cygni C. The 13th-magnitude star is likely to be an unrelated background object.
The spectroscopic pair are an orange supergiant of spectral type K3Ib and a blue-white star likely to be evolving off the main sequence with a spectral type of B2IV-V. The visible companion is a 7th-magnitude B5 main sequence star.
31 Cygni A is an Algol-type eclipsing binary and ranges between magnitudes 3.73 and 3.89 over a period of ten years. The eclipsing system has been studied in attempts to determine an accurate direct mass for a red supergiant. The value is believed to be accurate to about 2%, but there are some discrepancies in the orbital fit.
30 Cygni is another naked eye star a tenth of a degree away, forming a bright triple.
32 Cygni is about a degree away to the north, also a detached eclipsing binary system. It comprises a large cool evolved star and a small hot main sequence or subgiant companion.
