Ephemerides of the 48 HIPPARCOS minor planets for the year 1991
Bec-Borsenberger, A.
To be observed by Hipparcos, the position of each object has to be known with an accuracy of 1 arcsecond and its magnitude with an accuracy of 0.5 mag. Therefore, the orbital elements of 48 selected minor planets of the Hipparcos mission, have been improved in order to extrapolate their ephemerides with the accuracy required. These ephemerides for…
Optical positions of radiostars. II.
Costa, E.; Loyola, P.
Precise optical positions, relative to either the Perth 70 or the AGK3R catalogs, have been obtained for 40 radiostars proposed to the Hipparcos observing list. Precision levels between 0.18 and 0.29 arcsecs were obtained.
UVBY photometry of HIPPARCOS stars.
Oblak, E.
Photoelectric data in the uvby system have been obtained for 367 southern stars of the Hipparcos Input Catalogue. Most of the stars are F and G main sequence and fall in the magnitude range V = 9 to 10.
The winds of O-stars. I. an analysis of the UV line profiles with theSEI method.
Lamers, H. J. G. L. M.; Groenewegen, M. A. T.
The theoretical UV P Cygni profiles of the UV resonance lines for C IV, N V, Si IV, C III, and N IV of 26 O-type stars and one B star were calculated using the SEI method described by Lamers et al. (1987), taking into account the effects of turbulence in the wind, limb darkening, photospheric lines, and interstellar Ly alpha. The results were comp…
IUE-ULDA/USSP - The on-line low resolution spectral data archive of the International Ultraviolet Explorer
Pasian, F.; Talavera, A.; Wamsteker, W. +8 more
The on-line IUE Uniform Low Dispersion Archive (ULDA) and the associated ULDA Support Software Package (USSP) are described. The underlying philosophy, the detailed corrections made to the data and the implementation details are summarized. The low-resolution data are made available for direct access to the astronomical community through the exist…
Ultraviolet P-Cygni profile variations in HD 50896.
Howarth, I. D.; Willis, A. J.; Smith, L. J. +2 more
An analysis of 68 high-resolution IUE UV spectra of HD 50896 obtained at 9 separate epochs during the 1978-1983 period is presented. No evidence is found for the presence of a neutron star companion, and it is suggested that the observed UV profile variations are due to changes which are intrinsic to the WN5 stellar wind. The 46 spectra obtained d…
The IUE-UV spectrum of the CP2 star HR 465.
Fuhrmann, K.
Consideration is given to eleven high resolution IUE spectra of the chemically peculiar star HR 465 obtained between 1979 and 1982. The spectra are compared to those of Pi Cet, Nu Cap, Vega, HD 101065, alpha exp 2 CVn, Kappa Cnc, HR 4072, and HR 7775. About 2500 lines are identified in the HR 465 spectra. Most of these lines belong to iron-peak el…
Element identifications in IUE spectra of chemically peculiar stars :the Pt-Au-Hg sequence.
Fuhrmann, K.
The presence of the elemental sequence Pt-Au-Hg in IUE spectra of chemically peculiar and normal stars is discussed. The sample comprises the HgMn (= CP3) stars HR4072, HR7775, and Chi Lup; the Ap (= CP2) stars HR465 and Alpha2 CVn; and the normal stars Vega (A0V) and Nu Cap (B9V). UV lines of Pt II, Au II and Hg II are identified on IUE spectra f…
A photometric study of wide visual double stars with significant relative proper motion.
Sinachopoulos, D.
Photometric observations and uvby H-beta indices of 142 wide visual double stars are presented. Calibrations of the indices are used to derive MK class, color excess, absolute magnitude, effective temperature, and distance. The results are used to check candidates double stars for the Hipparcos mission for opticity.
The variable Herbig AE star HR 5999. IX. Variability in the UV shell lines.
The, P. S.; Tjin A Djie, H. R. E.; Blondel, P. F. C.
The young Herbig Ae star HR 5999 has been observed with the IUE in high resolution for six different phases of brightness. The equivalent width and half-width of a set of low excitation lines are measured. Both quantities appear to be correlated with the variation of the stellar magnitude in the sense that they decrease in strength with decreasing…
