The Bayer designation Mu Scorpii (μ Sco, μ Scorpii) is shared by two star systems, in the constellation Scorpius:
- μ1 Scorpii - a binary star whose primary is named Xamidimura
- μ2 Scorpii (named Pipirima)
They are separated by 0.1° in the sky.
They are separated too into different asterism in Chinese astronomy. μ1 Scorpii was a member of asterism 尾 (Wěi), Tail and μ2 Scorpii was the sole star in asterism 神宮 (Shéngōng), Changing Room (of the temple). Both asterisms are part of the Tail mansion.[1]
