π² Columbae, Latinized as Pi² Columbae, is a binary star^[9] system in the southern constellation of Columba, near the southern constellation border with Pictor. It is white-hued and dimly visible to the naked eye with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.50.^[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 12.8 mas as seen from Earth,^[1] this system is located about 254 light years from the Sun. They are receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of +31 km/s.^[4]

The pair have an angular separation of 0.1^[3] arc seconds with the primary being an A-type main-sequence star of spectral class A0 V,^[3] while the secondary component is a similar A-type star.^[9] The primary is 98 million years old with 2.6 times the mass of the Sun and is spinning rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 274 km/s.^[6] It is radiating 31^[7] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 11,223 K. The system is a source of X-ray emission with a luminosity of 184.3×10²⁰ W, which is considered unusual since A-type stars are not expected to display magnetic activity.^[3]
