A Study of Ultraviolet Spectra of Delta Sagittae
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 August 2017
Abstract
High resolution spectrum of the VV Cephei type star δ Sge (M2 II + A0 V) observed with the IUE satellite between 1979–1985 have been analysed. The radial velocity curves of non blended absorption features have been formed. Observed radial velocities are compared with the theoretical radial velocity curve due to orbital motion. We found that observed radial velocity variation is the resultant of radial velocity of hotter component and wind velocity around this star. The wind is perturbed by hotter component. Matching the UV continuum fluxes obtained from IUE high resolution spectra to fluxes of Kurucz model atmospheres yields Te=11000±500 °K. Thus the spectral type of hot component was found as A0.
