Both are spectroscopic binaries. The Aa period is 14.732 days; Bb's period is 2.236
days. In addition, the primary is an infra-red source.
The Yale Bright Star Catalog gives a distance of 820 light years (implying 490 times
the Sun's luminosity).

C8 at 206x. Smyth said it was "exquisite!" Webb saw Y and B.
Some observers report colors of Y and Y or B and D.
