SI II emission line diagnostics.

Judge, P. G.; Carpenter, K. G.; Harper, G. M.

The present study compares ratios of Si II UV emission lines in a variety of objects with computations based on recently published collisional data of Dufton and Kingston (1991). A high-quality spectrum of Alpha Tau (K5 III) obtained by Carpenter et al. (1991) is analyzed using the G270M mode of the GHRS on the HST, in addition to high-dispersion …
