31 Arietis (abbreviated 31 Ari) is a binary star in the northern constellation of Aries. 31 Arietis is the Flamsteed designation. The two members of this system orbit each other with a period of 1.924 years and an eccentricity of 0.88. The primary component is an F-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of F7 V. The pair have an apparent visual magnitude of 5.75,[2] which is just bright enough to be faintly visible to the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 28.79 mas,[1] the distance to this system is approximately 113 light-years (35 parsecs).
