22 Cygni is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Cygnus. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, blue-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.95. [ 2 ] The annual shift of 3.0 mas [ 1 ] yields a distance estimate of around 1,070 light years .
Albireo is the star in the head of the constellation of Cygnus (bottom). β Cygni (Latinised to Beta Cygni) is the system's Bayer designation. The brighter of the two components is designated β¹ Cygni or Beta Cygni A and the fainter β² Cygni or Beta Cygni B. The origin of the star system's traditional name Albireo is unclear.
Epsilon Cygni (ε Cygni, abbreviated Epsilon Cyg, ε Cyg) is binary star in the constellation of Cygnus. With an apparent visual magnitude of 2.48, it is readily visible to the naked eye at night, and is the third-brightest star in the constellation. Based upon parallax measurement, Epsilon Cygni is about 73 light-years distant.
SS Cygni is a variable star in the northern constellation Cygnus (the Swan). It was discovered in 1896 by Louisa D. Wells, a computer working under Edward Pickering at Harvard College Observatory . [ 7 ] [ 8 ] It is the prototype of the subclass of dwarf novae that show only normal eruptions.
