    We present optical spectra of four intermediate-mass candidate young stellar objects that have often been classified as Herbig Ae/Be stars. Typical Herbig Ae/Be emission features are not present in the spectra of these ...
  • A model of the 'steady' and 'fluctuating' parts of the sun's internal magnetic field 
    Gokhale, M. H; Hiremath, K. M (American Astronomical Society, 1993-04-10)
    We model the structure of the 'steady' (slowest varying) part of the sun's internal poloidal magnetic field assuming it to be (for given reasons and in the relevant domain) a current-free field whose field lines 'isorotate' ...
  • Hanle effect with angle-dependent partial redistribution 
    Nagendra, K. N; Frisch, H; Faurobert, M (The European Southern Observatory, 2002-11)
    The polarized line transfer equation for the Hanle effect is solved in the framework of an exact partial frequency redistribution (PRD) theory developed by Bommier (1997a,b). In that theory the effect of collisions on the ...
  • On the absolute magnitude of V482 Cygni, an R Coronae Borealis star 
    Kameswara Rao, N; Lambert, D. L (Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1993-06)
    An identification of V482 Cygni, a R Coronae Borealis star, with a quadruple system containing a K5 III star is rejected. High-resolution spectra show that the radial velocity of V482 Cyg and the K5 III star differ by 35 ...
  • Effects of magnetic shear, spot, and plage rotation on prominence evolution 
    Rausaria, R. R; Gupta, S. S; Selvendran, R; Raman, K. S; Singh, J (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1993-08)
    We have studied the evolution of two dark H-alpha filaments as prominences during their disk passage from February 12 to February 19, 1992 and from March 6 to March 17, 1992, using Kodaikanal Observatory H-alpha and Ca II ...
  • The Nebular Remnant and Quiescent Spectrum of Nova Gk-Persei

    CCD images of the nebular shell of the old nova GK Per in [N II] and [O III] emission lines, and also the quiescent spectrum in the optical region, are presented. Proper motion measurements of the knots in [N II]over the ...
  • Polarisation in A-type stars with circumstellar shells 
    Bhatt, H. C (European Southern Observatory, 1996-12)
    We present the results of optical linear polarisation measurements of about 30 A-type stars that are known to be either Ae/A shell stars or have shown anomalous emission in the infrared. Compared with the general population ...

  • Polarized resonance line transfer with collisional redistribution
