HD 90362 (HR 4092; 47 G. Sextantis) is a solitary star[16] located in the equatorial constellation Sextans. It is faintly visible to the naked eye as a redish-orange-hued point of light with an apparent magnitude of 5.56.[2] Gaia DR3 parallax measurements imply a distance of approximately 460 light-years[1] and it is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 35.6 km/s.[6] At its current distance, HD 90362's brightness is diminished by an interstellar extinction of 0.19 magnitudes[17] and it has an absolute magnitude of +0.19.[7]

HD 90362 is an old population II star[18] with a stellar classification of K6 III Fe −0.5,[4] indicating that it is an evolved K-type giant that has exhausted hydrogen at its core and left the main sequence along with a mild spectral underabundance of iron. It is currently on the asymptotic giant branch, generating energy via the fusion of hydrogen and helium shells around an inert carbon core.[3] It has only 44% the mass of the Sun[8] but at the age of 11 billion years,[8] it has expanded to 41.1 times the radius of the Sun.[9] It radiates 252 times the luminosity of the Sun[10] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 3,804 K.[12] HD 90362 is metal deficient with an iron abundance of [Fe/H] = −0.1 or 79.4% of the Sun's[8] and it spins slowly with a projected rotational velocity of approximately 1.5 km/s.[13]

The variability of the star was first detected in 1997 by the Hipparcos mission.[19] It found variations between 5.69 and 5.72 in the Hipparcos passband. As of 2004, its variability has not been confirmed.[20] HD 90362 has an optical companion located 142.6" away along a position angle of 100° as of 2010.[21] It was first observed by M. Scaria in 1981.[21]
