    Hydrodynamic effects in the atmosphere of variable stars (1975)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-16
    Description: Numerical models of variable stars are established, using a nonlinear radiative transfer coupled hydrodynamics code. The variable Eddington method of radiative transfer is used. Comparisons are for models of W Virginis, beta Doradus, and eta Aquilae. From these models it appears that shocks are formed in the atmospheres of classical Cepheids as well as W Virginis stars. In classical Cepheids, with periods from 7 to 10 days, the bumps occurring in the light and velocity curves appear as the result of a compression wave that reflects from the star's center. At the head of the outward going compression wave, shocks form in the atmosphere. Comparisons between the hydrodynamic motions in W Virginis and classical Cepheids are made. The strong shocks in W Virginis do not penetrate into the interior as do the compression waves formed in classical Cepheids. The shocks formed in W Virginis stars cause emission lines, while in classical Cepheids the shocks are weaker.

    Mean colors of Cepheids (1975)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-16
    Description: Color observations of Cepheids can be interpreted by a color effective temperature relation to give different T sub e values for each kind of mean color. Here, theoretical colors from numerical integrations of Cepheid pulsations are used to determine the proper method of taking the color mean in order to get, by the color T sub e relation, the correct nonpulsating T sub e.

    IUE observations of X-ray sources - HD153919 /4U1700-37/, HDE226868 /Cyg X-1/, HZ Her /Her X-1/ (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The first UV spectroscopic measurements of binary X-ray sources with IUE show highly variable emission from a photoionized plasma in the object HZ Her, and give evidence for localized circumsystem material in the binary source Cygnus X-1. In addition, a substantial stellar wind is found in one of the brightest identified X-ray sources HD153919. This system may be surrounded by an extensive H II region unusual in its content of high excitation ion species.

    Chromospheres of the active dwarf binaries EQ Pegasi and Xi Bootis (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Ultraviolet spectroscopic measurements of the M dwarf binary EQ Peg and the G8 V star Xi Boo A have been made with the International Ultraviolet Explorer satellite. High-temperature emission lines (N V, C IV, Si IV) are present with similar strengths in both stars. The surface fluxes of chromospheric and transition-region lines are enhanced relative to those of normal main-sequence stars and are comparable to those observed in solar active regions. If inhomogeneities are present, the surface fluxes may be markedly higher than the derived values. It is likely that the emission observed from EQ Peg was not the result of major flare activity; however, the quiescent radiative losses observed in the ultraviolet are comparable to the time-averaged optical flare losses. The similarity of the line emissions of active dwarfs of diverse spectral types suggests that the character of the transition region is independent of the stellar effective temperature.

    Empirical effective temperatures and bolometric corrections for early-type stars (1976)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: An empirical effective temperature for a star can be found by measuring its apparent angular diameter and absolute flux distribution. The angular diameters of 32 bright stars in the spectral range O5f to F8 have recently been measured with the stellar interferometer at Narrabri Observatory, and their absolute flux distributions have been found by combining observations of ultraviolet flux from the Orbiting Astronomical Observatory (OAO-2) with ground-based photometry. In this paper, these data have been combined to derive empirical effective temperatures and bolometric corrections for these 32 stars.

    Chromospheres and coronae of late-type stars (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: IUE short wavelength (1150-2000 A) spectra of late-type dwarfs, giant, and supergiant stars show a variety of emission features varying in excitation from about 10,000 K to about 3 x 10 to the 5th K. High excitation species are found most strongly in main sequence stars. Dwarf stars with active chromospheres (e.g., Xi Boo) and flare stars (EQ Peg) show enhancement of surface flux as compared to the quiet sun; binary systems of W UMa and RS CVn types show even larger surface fluxes. The enhancement increases with temperature of formation much like a solar active region. The presence of high excitation species in the giant and supergiant stars suggests that parameters other than effective temperature and luminosity are important in establishing a transition region and corona.

    Ultraviolet observations of AM Herculis with IUE (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Ultraviolet observations of the binary X-ray source AM Herculis from the IUE satellite show strong emission lines of ions from O I to N V, probably originating in photoionized gas, and a continuum which is partially eclipsed in phase with the X-ray eclipse. The emission lines have broad (about 600 km/s) and sharp (about 80 km/s) components at different velocities, as has been seen in optical lines. The continuum is interpreted as two components, a blackbody (blackbody kT of 25-30 eV) which accounts for the X-ray emission below 0.5 keV and the eclipsed part of the UV continuum, and a component which is never eclipsed, whose spectrum is roughly proportional to the inverse of frequency. Strong ultraviolet emission due to optically thick cyclotron emission, which has been predicted theoretically, is not observed. This presents a severe difficulty for the theory of accretion onto the magnetic pole of a white dwarf.

    Ultraviolet spectroscopic measurements of globular clusters (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Ultraviolet spectra of six globular clusters (M15, M92, NGC 1851, NGC 6624, 47 Tuc, and NGC 6752) have been taken with the International Ultraviolet Explorer satellite in order to investigate the surface brightness distributions in the central regions. The ultraviolet emission indicates composite stellar spectra. Short-wavelength emission (1200-1900 A) arises from blue horizontal-branch stars; long-wavelength emission (2100-3000 A) is characteristic of late-type horizontal-branch and giant stars. The surface brightness distribution is more compact at short wavelengths than at long wavelengths, suggesting a segregation of horizontal-branch stars. A dense core appears to be present in X-ray-emitting clusters and absent in those clusters without X-ray sources. The X-ray source in NGC 6624 may have been detected at short wavelengths (1300-1900 A).

    Contribution of intermediate luminosity X-ray galaxies to the background - Anon 0945-30 (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Evidence that the galaxy A0945-30 is a new extragalactic X-ray source was found from an analysis of rotating modulation collimator quick-look data collected from the SAS 3 X-ray observatory. A strong piece of evidence was the hydrogen column density of 3 plus or minus 1 times 10 to the 22nd power per sq cm for a power law spectrum extending to about 35 keV inferred from HEAO 1 data. Observations indicate that the galaxy is an early type spiral with a bright nucleus. A faint star alongside the galaxy within the 90% confidence X-ray source error circle is an F dwarf with no indication of emission features. Spectra of the galaxy in the red and blue show sharp, intermediate strength emission lines of forbidden O III, forbidden N II, and H-alpha together with strong Mg, Fe, Ca absorption features characteristic of a normal stellar continuum in the galactic nucleus.

    IUE observations of the X-ray source HZ Herculis/Her X-1 (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The results of a campaign of monitoring HZ Her with the IUE satellite are presented. The spectrum and light variation outside of eclipse are fairly consistent with the Milgrom and Salpeter (1975) model for emission from the X-ray heated photosphere of the primary. Near eclipse there is UV flux in excess of the prediction of the heated photosphere model. This suggests an additional emitting component whose relative importance decreases toward shorter wavelengths. The excess flux near 1500A appears to vary with 35 day phase in a manner consistent with the model of Gerend and Boynton (1976) in which the flux contributed by the accretion disk is modulated by precession.
