  • Anomalous dust in the environment of Herbig Ae/Be stars 
    Gorti, U; Bhatt, H. C (European Southern Observatory, 1993-04)
    Photometric data in the UBVRI bands of Herbig Ae/Be stars have been analyzed to study the wavelength dependence of extinction to these objects. The color excess ratios E(U-B)/E(B-V), E(V-R)/E(B-V), E(V-I)/E(B-V) and ...
  • BVRI polarimetry of carbon stars 
    Raveendran, A. V (European Southern Observatory, 1991-03)
    BVRI polarimetry of carbon stars belonging to different variability types - VX And, UU Aur, T Cae, Y CVn, U Hya, Y Hya, RY Mon, W Ori, Y Per, RT Pup, and X Vel - is presented. Though there is significant scatter, on the ...
  • Depletion Studies in the Interstellar Medium 
    Haris, U; Parvathi, V. S; Gudennavar, S. B; Murthy, J (American Institute of Physics, 2013-06)
    We report interstellar Si depletion and dust-phase column densities of Si along 131 Galactic sight lines using previously reported gas-phase Si II column densities, after correcting for the differences in oscillator ...
  • Detached cold dust shell around the early R star (warm carbon star) HD 100764 
    Parthasarathy, M (The European Southern Observatory, 1991-07)
    The existence of a dust shell and warm dust near HD 100764 are determined from IRAS observations of early R stars, and the ramifications of the findings are discussed. The mass of the dust shell is calculated to be 0.510 ...
  • Dust envelopes around RV Tauri stars 
    Raveendran, A. V (The Royal Astronomical Society, 1989-06)
    In the IRAS (12)-(25), (25)-(60) color-color diagram, RV Tauri stars are found to populate cooler temperature regions, distinctly different from those occupied by the oxygen and carbon Miras. The IRAS fluxes are consistent ...
  • Effects of dust on the formation of lines in an expanding spherical medium 
    Peraiah, A; Varghese, B. A; Srinivasa Rao, M (The European Southern Observatory, 1987-06)
    A series of line profiles formed in a spherically symmetric and radially expanding atmosphere in which dust is present are computed, assuming that the dust scatters radiation isotropically. Two cases of dust distribution ...
  • Emission-line CCD imaging of three southern symbiotic stars 
    Bhatt, H. C; Sagar, R (Indian Academy of Sciences, 1991-06)
    Symbiotic stars that are strong radio sources and have cool dust emitting in the IR are expected to have extended emission nebulae around them. In order to search for such emission nebulae, CCD imaging of three symbiotic ...
  • Equivalent widths of hydrogen Lyman alpha line in an expanding spherical atmosphere 
    Peraiah, A; Ingalgi, M. F (Indian Academy of Sciences, 1990-06)
    The profiles of hydrogen Lyman-alpha line in an expanding spherical atmosphere containing dust and gas were calculated. The variation of equivalent widths with velocities of expansion of the atmosphere, together with the ...
  • An investigation of polarization produced by circumstellar dust envelopes 
    Raveendran, A. V (European Southern Observatory, 1991-03)
    Numerical computations show that: (1) the polarimetric behavior of carbon stars is inconsistent with the scattering by graphite grains, (2) the radial pulsation of the star does not significantly change the net polarization ...
  • IRAS observations of R Cor Bor stars 
    Kameswara Rao, N; Nandy, K (Royal Astronomical Society, 1986-09)
    The IRAS observations of R Cr B, SU Tau and V 348 Sgr indicate the existence of a cool dust component of temperature about 30 K in R Cr B and SU Tau and less than or equal to 100 K in V 348 Sgr, in addition to the hot dust. ...
  • Polarimetric observations of the RV Tauri star AR Puppis 
    Raveendran, A. V; Kameswara Rao, N (European Southern Observatory, 1988-03)
    UBVRI polarimetry of AR Pup is presented. Large variations are seen both in the amount and direction of polarization. On one occasion, the polarization in U was found to be as high as 14.6 percent. Polarization level ...
