The far UV spectrum of the Be star 88 Herculis.

Abstract

A high-resolution FUV spectrum of 88 Her, obtained with the IUE short-wavelength primary instrument on May 23, 1984, is analyzed. Line identifications for the 110-210-nm range, determined on the basis of the multiplet tables of Moore (1968) and Kelly and Palumbo (1979) are presented in a table, and a list of unidentified lines is also provided. The spectrum is characterized by crowded shell absorption lines, with Fe II and Ni II dominant.
