Measurements of Balmer emission line profiles for southern Be stars. II. New data and radial velocities.

Bouchet, P.; Dachs, J.; Hanuschik, R. +6 more

The results of an analyses of more than 500 H alpha, H beta and H gamma line profiles from 55 bright Be and mostly early type Be shell-type stars over the period 1980-83 are reported. The photoelectrically-determined spectra were reduced for equivalent widths and half-widths at different epochs, 200 Balmer line profiles and variations, and radial …

An atlas of high resolution IUE ultraviolet spectra of 14 Wolf-Rayet stars.

Willis, A. J.; van der Hucht, K. A.; Conti, P. S. +1 more

The authors present an atlas of high resolution (Δλ = 0.1 - 0.2 Å) IUE ultraviolet spectra of 14 galactic Wolf-Rayet stars (9 WN and 5 WC). For each star the wavelength ranges covered are λλ1150 - 2050 and λλ1850 - 3250. The spectral data are presented in the form of line identification lists and spectral tracings. Where possible the authors have …

Scattered light in the IUE spectra of epsilon Aurigae.

Kondo, Y.; Stencel, R. E.; Chapman, R. D. +1 more

Recent infrared photometry indicates that the alleged disk of particulate matter surrounding the mysterious secondary object in the Epsilon Aur system is cold, around 500 K. IUE spectra, on the other hand, contain significant flux in excess of that expected from an F0 Ia star in the far UV, which if interpreted as a hot secondary star leads to a p…
