'''Psi<sup>9</sup> Aurigae''' (ψ<sup>9</sup> Aur, ψ<sup>9</sup> Aurigae) is the [[Bayer designation]] for a [[star]] in the northern [[constellation]] of [[Auriga (constellation)|Auriga]]. It is dimly visible to the naked eye with an [[apparent visual magnitude]] of 5.75.<ref name=aaa367_521/> Based upon an annual [[parallax]] shift of 2.59&nbsp;[[milliarcsecond|mas]],<ref name=aaa474_2_653/> the distance to this star is approximately {{Convert|1300|ly|pc|abbr=off|lk=on}}.
 
The [[spectrum]] of Psi<sup>9</sup> Aurigae matches a [[giant star]] with a [[stellar classification]] of B8&nbsp;IIIe.<ref name=pasp101_839/> The 'e' suffix indicates this is a [[Be star]] that shows emission lines of hydrogen in its spectrum. This is caused by a circumstellar shell of hot gas. The emission undergoes variability on a time scale of sixteen years.<ref name=pasp101_839/>
ψ<sup>9</sup> Aurigae is a blue-white [[stellar classification|B-type]] [[giant star|giant]] with an [[apparent magnitude]] of +5.85. It is approximately 826 [[light-years]] from [[Earth]].
