	Rotanev
		The Alpha star, which is slightly the fainter of the two (magnitude 3.77), is called Sualocin, the Beta star (at magnitude 3.63 the constellation's luminary) Rotanev, which represent the honoree's names spelled backwards.
		Unlike its hotter constellation-mate, however, Rotanev's components are very similar, both the same class (F5 subgiants) and temperature (6500 Kelvin).
		The rotation speed of one or both is modest, around 40 kilometers per second (20 times that of the slowly rotating Sun), and like so many stars of the mid-temperature classes, Rotanev shows peculiar abundances (particularly for strontium) as a result of settling and lofting of various kinds of atoms.

	Rotanev.
		The strange names alpha (Sualocin) and beta (Rotanev) first appeared for these stars in the Palermo Catalogue of 1814, and long were a mystery to all.
		Alpha is Sualocin = Nicolaus; beta is Rotanev = Venator.
		But Miss Rolleston, in her singular book Mazzaroth, considered in some quarters [bibical] as of authority, wrote that they are derived, alpha (Sualocin) from the Arabic Scalooin, swift (as the flow of water) and beta from the Syriac and Chaldee Rotaneb, or Rotaneu, swiftly running (as water in the trough).

		Rotanev is a relatively dim star with a magnitude of 3.63.
		Two stars in Delphinus bear the peculiar names of Sualocin and Rotanev, given to them in 1814 by the Italian astronomer Niccolò Cacciatore, assistant and successor to the great Giuseppe Piazzi at Palermo Observatory.
		Principal stars are: Rotanev Beta Delphini, magnitude 3.6; Sualocin Alpha Delphini, magnitude 3.8 and Gamma Delphini a classic double star, magnitudes 4.6 and 5.1 which can easily be separated with a small telescope.

		Rotanev (beta Del) is magnitude 3.7, while Svalocin (alpha Del) shines at magnitude This is by far the DIMMEST bright star we have used as our "starting target" for any constellation "GO TO" TOUR, surpassing the "dim bulb award" of Zuben El Genubi from the inconspicuous Libra constellation.
		Rotanev is actually a pair of 4.0 and 4.9 stars, orbiting VERY close to one-another; a keen-eye observer with the 8" scope or larger MAY be able to resolve these two, at only about 0.7" separation.
		This star and Rotanev - as well as gamma and delta Delphini - "may" be part of an actual star "association," a configuration of stars all at the same distance that appear to be moving synchronously or gravitationally bound to one-another and hence a very "loose and sparse" cluster of sorts.

	Beta Delphini - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Beta Delphini, also known as Beta Del, is a multiple star in the constellation Delphinus.
		As a practical joke, the astronomer Niccolò Cacciatore gave it the name Rotanev, which is a reversal of his Latinized family name, Venator.
		The star has five components; components A and B are a physical binary; C, D, and E are optical.

	Sualocin and Rotanev - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sualocin (α Delphini) and Rotanev (β Delphini) are names of stars, the result of an enduring practical joke played by the Italian astronomer Niccolò Cacciatore (1780–1841.) Cacciatore worked as an assistant to Giuseppe Piazzi, head of the Palermo Astronomical Observatory, while Piazzi was compiling a star catalog.
		When the Palermo Star Catalogue was published in 1814, the names Sualocin and Rotanev appeared in the catalog without explanation; eventually the astronomer Thomas Webb pointed out that they were reversals of Cacciatore's Latinized name (Nicolaus Venator.)

		The slightly bigger A star is in its evolutionary state further as the B star and has catched up with this in spectral class on its way to become a red giant.
