    The R Coronae Borealis star V854 Cen was observed at minimum light (V about 15) at high spectral resolution from 5480 to 7070 A. The spectrum consists of three components: a continuum devoid of photospheric lines, a ...
  • An internally consistent set of oscillator strengths for Fe I lines 
    Giridhar, S; Ferro, A. A (Indian Academy of Sciences, 1989-03)
    An extensive set of internally consistent oscillator strength values for Fe I lines is compiled using literature data and scaling the oscillator strengths derived by different workers to that of Blackwell and his coworkers. ...
  • Kinematic studies of five galactic planetary nebulae 
    Banerjee, D. P. K; Anandarao, B. G; Jain, S. K; Mallik, D. C. V (The European Southern Observatory, 1990-12)
    High-resolution Fabry-Perot observations have been made to determine the velocity structure of five PNe and to subsequently relate the observations to the morphology of the objects. New kinematic data on one of these PNe, ...
  • Long-term polarimetric behaviour of the carbon Mira R Leporis 
    Raveendran, A. V; Kameswara Rao, N (European Southern Observatory, 1989-05)
    BVRI polarimetry of R Lep obtained during 1984-1987 shows large changes in the normalized wavelength dependence of polarization. It is found that both the amount and position angle of polarization had components which ...
