Ultraviolet Fe II Absorption Lines in HD 59643
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
The peculiar red giant HD 59643 (C6,2) has a composite spectrum like a symbiotic star’s except for the absence of highly ionized species. UV observations show a highly variable hot continuum with superimposed absorptions of Fe II and the common emission lines of C IV, Si III], C III], C II], and Mg II. These Fe II absorptions, which are practically ubiquitous in interacting binaries, are an effective diagnostic of turbulence and distribution of scattering gas, even at low resolution.
