    Description: New data indicate that red giants are surrounded by geometrically thick chromospheres of several stellar radii extent. Such chromospheres occur among stars which apparently lack coronae. Maintenance of this extended warm region may require non-compressional wave heating of a magnetic character, and this may provide a crucial clue to the mechanism of rapid mass loss from red giant stars.

    Description: This paper presents the results of a study of circumstellar gas and dust in a larger sample of stars than that of Hagen (1978). The gas-to-dust ratio varies considerably from star to star. The observations were obtained at Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory and Kitt Peak National Observatory. CS gas was observed with 2.5 and 5.1 A/mm echelle spectra obtained with the 4-meter telescopes. CS dust was observed through infrared photometry done with the CTIO 60 and KPNO 50 telescopes.

    Description: There is now an increasing amount of both observational evidence and theoretical arguments that regions of partially ionized hydrogen extending several stellar radii are an important feature of red giant and supergiant stars. This evidence is discussed and the implications of the existence of extended chromospheres in terms of the nature of the outer atmospheres of, and mass loss from, cool stars are examined.

    Description: UV observations using the IUE are employed to discuss the strength and changes of Zeta Aur between a second contact and mid-eclipse in 1979, the relative visibility of the supergiant's chromosphere as compared with the circumstellar (CS) nebular scattering of the B star photons, and the origin of the high speed CS components observed at all orbital phases. Agreement has been found for a spectoscopic radius of 200 solar radii and a 400 pc distance, and eclipse emission lines were recorded from 1238.9-2802.7 microns. An asymmetry in the Fe III lines at 46 plus or minus 15 km/sec was seen during eclipse and is taken to indicate downflowing material. The high speed wind flowing from the K supergiant is thought to expand homogeneously until encountering the B type main sequence star, where an accretion bow shock forms, and the smaller star's passage near the K star at periastron may cause local surface heating and subsequent high speed flows.

    Description: Existing high dispersion, long wavelength IUE, high dispersion long and short wavelength, and Balloon borne ultraviolet stellar spectrograph (BUSS) spectra providing a baseline measurement of the ultraviolet spectrum of the Epsilon Aurigae system before eclipse are reviewed. Plans for ultraviolet spectrum IUE observations during the 1982 to 1984 eclipse of Epsilon Aurigae are presented.

    Description: Recent far ultraviolet high dispersion spectra of two cool supergiant stars, Beta Dra (G2 Ib) and Alpha Ori (M2 Iab) are examined in the context of current questions regarding stellar chromospheres, coronae and mass loss. These stars show very different outer atmosphere structure. Beta Dra has a geometrically thin transition region with bright emission lines of 100,000 K plasma that are red-shifted, indicating downflow in magnetic flux tubes. By contrast, Alpha Ori has a cool extended chromosphere and circumstellar envelope with large mass loss.

    Description: A number of spectroscopic peculiarities of K giants and other stars which lie in a wedge in the HR diagram are discussed. These peculiarities can be understood in terms of unsteady magnetic flux loops emerging into the stellar atmosphere from beneath the surface.

    Description: It is noted that the symbiotic-like object HD 4174 (EG And) exhibits the optical spectrum of an M2 giant star, but also shows Balmer and nebular line emission. The first UV spectrum showed an intense far UV emission line spectrum typical of many symbiotic stars. A 470 day binary or pulsation period for this system, based on the changing strength and velocity of the H alpha emission. Preliminary indications are that the H alpha and far UV continuum are eclipsed near phase 0.6 (at maximum H alpha redshift), but that the correlation for the emission lines remains unclear and requires additional observations.

    Description: Ultraviolet spectra of the peculiar eclipsing binary Epsilon Aurigae (FO Ia + ?) were obtained with the International Ultraviolet Explorer at pre-eclipse and ingress partial phases. The results show a wavelength dependence of the eclipse in contrast to the grayness (non-wavelength dependence) of the eclipse observed in visible light. From the current results, incorporating previous observations, it is suggested that: (1) the obscuration of the light of the F supergiant by the disk proposed by Huang (1965) is the result of electron scattering in visible light; (2) the increase in the eclipse depths toward shorter wavelengths observed in the ultraviolet is caused by dust; and (3) the temperature of the disk is in the range from 1000 to 2000 K.

    Description: The outer atmospheres of four F- and G-type supergiants in the LMC are compared with those of their Milky Way counterparts by means of 2.5 and 5.1 A/mm high dispersion Echelle spectra. Na I D line doubling indicates extensive circumstellar envelopes, mass loss rates greater than 0.00001 solar masses/year, and outflow velocities of 10-60 km/sec. The Ca II H and K lines yield new data on extragalactic star chromospheres.
