  Epsilon Ursae Majoris - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is the star in the "tail" of the bear closest to its "body", and is also a member of the large and diffuse Ursa Major moving group.
Its spectral type is A0p; the "p" stands for peculiar, as the spectrum of its light is quite odd, of a kind characteristic of an Alpha2 Canum Venaticorum variable.
In the case of Alioth, the rotational and magnetic axes are at almost 90 degrees to one another; in the map of Alioth linked below, note how the darker (more dense) regions of chromium form a band at right angles to the equator.

 Alioth   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
A white class A (A0) star with a measured temperature of 9400 Kelvin, Alioth shines at us from a distance of 81 light years with a luminosity 108 times that of the Sun, from which we derive a diameter of four times solar and a mass close to triple that of the Sun.
Large and luminous for its class, Alioth is probably ageing, and is nearing the end of its main sequence hydrogen-fusing lifetime.
Of greater significance, Alioth is the brightest of the "peculiar A (Ap) stars," magnetic stars in which a variety of chemical elements are either depleted or enhanced, and in addition appear to change with great regularity as the star rotates.

 Alioth - Debian Wiki   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
ask for a new project on Alioth but it will only be approved if it respects the
arch.debian.org but it's tightly related to Alioth since all the user accounts and the groups are taken from Alioth (the synchronization is done regularly but not in real-time, so granting access to a new contributor is not immediate!).
This means that you can only request subversion/arch repositories for existing alioth projects and that any member of that project will have access to the corresponding public repository.
