Red giant, red dwarfs? edit

The spectral type of the primary is G5 according to SIMBAD, and the companions are approximately G8V and K1V according to the paper. [1] The description of the primary as a "red giant" (which tends to refer to giant stars with K or M spectral type), and the companions "red dwarfs" (which usually means dwarf stars with an M-type spectrum) is therefore a somewhat odd choice by the paper's authors and it may well be misleading to use these terms in this article. 46.126.76.193 (talk) 16:53, 22 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

You're right, the use of "red dwarfs" is misleading. I've rewritten the article, omitting the term. Loooke (talk) 23:36, 28 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
