    Balloon-borne ultraviolet stellar spectrograph. I - Instrumentation and observation. II - Highlights of first observational results (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: A dual star-tracking system and a system including a telescope, an echelle spectrograph, and a SEC vidicon are the chief components of the Balloon-borne Ultraviolet Stellar Spectrograph (BUSS), which has flown four successful missions. The BUSS missions have yielded 81 spectra for 56 stars, recorded with a resolution of 0.1 A in the wavelength range from 2200 to 3400 A. BUSS observations include: profiles of Mg II lines indicating considerable mass flow in early-type supergiants; Mg II features suggesting a cool expanding outer shell above a hotter chromosphere; emission features in Zeta Tau (a shell star) indicating infalling material; and emission features of the Be star Phi Per suggesting mass outflow.

    Remote sensing using solid-state array technology (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The paper describes the design features and capabilities of a remote sensor that uses solid-state linear arrays and operates in a 'pushbroom' scan mode to provide the required performance. Pushbroom scanning is a term describing the technique of using the forward motion of a satellite platform to sweep a linear array of detectors oriented perpendicular to the ground track across a scene being imaged. One array is typically used for each spectral channel. Satellite motion provides one direction of scan and electronic sampling of the detectors in the crosstrack dimension provides the orthogonal scan component to form an image. The detector array is sampled at the appropriate rate so that contiguous lines are produced. The performance of a pushbroom system is discussed relative to radiometric sensitivity, detector array geometric fidelity, and radiometric correction. System advantages are precision geometric positioning of the detectors, very high sensitivity and favorable SNR, low power consumption, and no moving optics.

    A non-LTE treatment of beryllium lines - Misidentification of the solar Be I feature at 2650 A (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The formation of beryllium lines, with particular reference to the solar Be spectrum, is investigated in a non-LTE context with a 25-level model atom in which 15 levels are allowed to depart from LTE. In some transitions, particularly the Be I 2650-A line, the non-LTE effects can be quite dramatic, changing the deduced abundances by a factor of 4. Based on the non-LTE calculations and Copernicus observations of other stars, it is found that a solar spectral feature at 2650 A, previously identified by numerous investigators as a Be I line, cannot be produced by Be I. Non-LTE effects on the Be II 3131-A line, used for most Be abundance determinations in the literature, are small by comparison.

    The brightness distribution of IRC +10216 at 11 microns (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The brightness distribution of IRC +10216 at a wavelength of 11 microns has been measured in detail by using spatial interferometer. This brightness distribution appears to have azimuthal symmetry; an upper limit of 1.1 may be set to the ellipticity at 11 microns if the object has a major axis oriented either along or perpendicular to the major axis of the optical image. The radial distribution shows both compact and extended emission. The extended component, which is due to thermal emission from circumstellar dust, contributes 91% of the total flux and has a 1/e diameter of 0.90 arcsec. The tapered shape of this component is consistent with a dust density dependence on the inverse square of radial distance. The compact component is unresolved (less than 0.2 arcsec in diameter) and represents emission from the central star seen through the circumstellar envelope.

    Orion's Cloak - A rapidly expanding shell of gas centered on the Orion OB1 association (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The structure of the interstellar gas surrounding the Orion OB1 association and the neighboring lambda Orionis association is detailed. UV absorption lime spectra of various ionization stages of C, N, Si and S in the directions of 12 stars were obtained by means of the spectrometer on board the Copernicus satellite. The presence of a shell of material surrounding the two associations and expanding at 100 to 120 km/sec, designated Orion's Cloak, was revealed, together with sporadically occurring higher column density matter at lower velocities. Results are interpreted to indicate the presence of a rapidly moving radiative shock outside the H II region of the association stars and inside this feature, a lower velocity, higher column density cloud which appears to be directly ionized by association stars. It is suggested that the gas features are caused by the effects of a recent supernova and of multiple supernovae, stellar winds and rocket-accelerated clouds in addition to stellar ionization.

    High-pressure transition regions in stellar model chromospheres (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The implications of recent ultraviolet observations of stellar transition-region lines for calculations of the Ca II and Mg II resonance lines are investigated. It is found that the adoption of high transition-region pressures for stars with active chromospheres, such as Lambda And and Alpha Aur, can be consistent with observed Ca II fluxes, contrary to the results obtained by Kelch et al. (1978) for Alpha Aur. Furthermore, the adoption of the high-pressure models removes a long-standing difficulty in the line profile calculations, since the deep central absorption present in earlier calculations is less pronounced or absent, in closer agreement with observations. The apparent contradiction between these models and the recent density diagnostic of Doschek et al. (1978) is also discussed.

    Multispectral Resource Sampler - An experimental satellite sensor for the mid-1980s (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: An experimental pushbroom scan sensor, the Multispectral Resource Sampler (MRS), being developed by NASA for a future earth orbiting flight is presented. This sensor will provide new earth survey capabilities beyond those of current sensor systems, with a ground resolution of 15 m over a swath width of 15 km in four bands. The four arrays are aligned on a common focal surface requiring no beamsplitters, thus causing a spatial separation on the ground which requires computer processing to register the bands. Along track pointing permits stereo coverage at variable base/height ratios and atmospheric correction experiments, while across track pointing will provide repeat coverage, from a Landsat-type orbit, of every 1 to 3 days. The MRS can be used for experiments in crop discrimination and status, rock discrimination, land use classification, and forestry.

    NH3 in IRC +10216 (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Ammonia has been detected in the circumstellar envelope of IRC +10216 by means of three infrared absorption lines in the nu-2 band around 950 kaysers. The profiles are well resolved at a resolution of 0.22 km/s and show that most of the circumstellar gas is accelerated to expansion velocities around 14 km/s within a few stellar radii. The observed ammonia requires a rotational temperature between 400 and 700 K, an H2 density between 100 million and 10 billion per cu cm, and an NH3 column density of 10 to the 17th per sq cm. The H2 density indicates that the mass of the circumstellar envelope within a 1 arcsec radius is about 0.1 solar mass.

    Stellar model chromospheres. IX - Chromospheric activity in dwarf stars (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: High-resolution Ca II K line profiles are used to model the upper photospheres and lower chromospheres of eight main-sequence stars ranging in spectral type from F0 to M0 and exhibiting different degrees of chromospheric activity. The model chromospheres are studied as a function of spectral type and activity for stars of similar spectral type in order to obtain evidence of enhanced nonradiative heating in the upper-photospheric models and in the ratio of minimum temperature at the base of the chromosphere to effective temperature, a correlation between activity and temperature in the lower chromospheres, and a correlation of the width at the base of the K-line emission core and at the K2 features with activity. Chromospheric radiative losses are estimated for the modelled stars and other previously analyzed main-sequence stars. The results obtained strengthen the argument that dMe flare stars exhibit fundamentally solar-type activity but on an increased scale.
