The UV spectrum of the possible radio star HD 26676.

Bibcode: 1979A&A....77..359S

Stickland, D. J.

Results are reported for low-resolution UV spectroscopy (1150-1950 A and 1850-3250 A) of the star HD 26676, which may be associated with a weak nonthermal radio source, from the IUE satellite. It is found that the energy distribution of this star appears to be that of a perfectly normal single B8 V star. It is concluded that HD 26676 is an unlikel…

Heating of Chromospheres and Coronae in Cool Stars

Bibcode: 1979IrAJ...14...73M

Mullan, D. J.

Recent evidence is summarized that suggests that neither of two traditional views of chromospheric heating (that the flux of energy required to heat the solar chromosphere) is only a small fraction of the total radiative energy emerging from the solar interior and that chromospheres are heated by acoustic waves generated in the convection zone (wh…

Hartline, B. K.

The impact of the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE), launched in January 1978, on ultraviolet astronomy is reviewed. An assortment of firsts has been achieved, including the first UV observation of a supernova, the first high-resolution UV spectrum of a star in another galaxy, and the first evidence that acetylene is present in the upper at…

The development and results of the first year of operation of the IUE astronomical satellite are outlined. The concept of the satellite is traced from the first proposal of the Large Astronomical Satellite by the precursor of ESA, through the proposed Ultraviolet Astronomical Satellite, the joint construction of the International Ultraviolet Explo…

Coe, M. J.; Quenby, J. J.; Engel, A. R.

Results from the hard X-ray detector (8 cm² area, 8 degrees f.w.h.m. field of view, energy range 26-1200 keV) are reviewed in the context of observations by other groups. At least three different classes of galactic sources are studied by this detector. In the first, magnetospheric control of the emission, which seems to be a modified t…
