Abstract

AbstractThe aim of this study is to investigate the potential of habitability for 30 Arietis, a quintuple stellar system located in the Northern Hemisphere. 30 Ari consists of two F‐type main‐sequence stars and three M dwarfs. The system is highly hierarchical; it encompasses one super‐close binary and another binary of moderate separation distance accompanied by an outside component. Significant potential for circumstellar habitability exists regarding the super‐close binary, as gauged by the size of the general habitable zone with a width of 1.85 au. Limited potential for habitability is found for the other part of the system given by 30 Ari C, but not for 30 Ari Ba+b. Hence, 30 Ari should be viewed as a system of intermediate relevance for future search missions of habitable exoplanets.
