HD 123657 or BY Boötis is a variable star. Variability spectral is 4.98 - 5.33V, " slow irregular variables of late spectral types (K, M, C, S); as a rule, they are giants (CO Cyg). This type is also ascribed, in the GCVS, to slow red irregular variables in the case of unknown spectral types and luminosities, " § hypothetical.
