IUE Observations of Z Andromedae
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 August 2015
Abstract
The preliminary results of a joint study of this symbiotic star with 6 Italian astronomers are reported. The relative intensities of the intercombination emission lines indicate electron densities of 1010 and an upper limit to the dilution factor between 10−4 and 10−6. The resonance emission lines give a maximum thickness in the line of sight. A hot (T between 19000° and 26000°) continuum is interpreted as coming from a hot subdwarf, but the high excitation emission lines appear to be formed near the cool giant component of what is probably a close binary.
