Procyon (α Canis Minoris), is the brightest star in Canis Minor. To the naked eye, it appears to be a single star, the 8th in the night sky with a mag. 0.34. It is a binary star system, consisting of a white main-sequence star of spectral type F5 IV–V, named Procyon A, and a faint and very difficult to detect white dwarf companion of spectral type DQZ, named Procyon B with mag. 10.7.
The pair orbit with a period of 40.82 years along an elliptical orbit with an eccentricity of 0.407. The plane of their orbit is inclined at an angle of 31.1° to the line of sight with the Earth.
Images are obtained using lucky and speckle imaging techniques.
