International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) Ultraviolet Spectral Atlas of Selected Astronomical Objects
Author: Chi-Chao Wu
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : HR diagrams
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
A quick reference for the ultraviolet spectra of many categories of astronomical objects. Shows reflected sunlight from the Moon, planets, and asteroids, and emission from comets. Contains the spectra for: pre-main sequence stars, chemically peculiar stars, pulsating variables, subluminous stars, and Wolf-Rayet stars. Presents phenomena such as the chromospheric and transition region emissions from late-type stars; composite spectra of stars, gas streams, accretion disks and gas envelopes of binary systems; the behavior of gas ejecta shortly after the outburst of novac and supernovac; and the H II regions, planetary nebulae, and supernova remnants. Population 2 stars, globular clusters, and luminous stars in the Magellanic Clouds, M31, and M33, are included. Finally, gives the ultraviolet spectra of galaxies of different Hubble types and of active galaxies.

Stars and Their Spectra
Author: James B. Kaler
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521585705
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
The study of stars and their spectra is central to an understanding of classical and modern astronomy. The principal tool for investigating the nature of stars is to observe and interpret their spectra. In this lucid book, James Kaler clearly explains the alphabet of stellar astronomy - from the cool M stars to hot O stars - and tells the story of the evolution of stars and their place in the Universe. Before embarking on a fascinating voyage of cosmic discovery, we are introduced to the fundamental properties of stars, and how they can be categorised. Next, the structure of atoms and the formation of spectra is discussed, as a prelude to a full description of the spectral classification itself. The heart of the book examines each star type in turn and explores their spectra in detail. Notable discoveries and features related to each class sustain the story. There is also a review of unusual stars that cannot easily be classified. Finally, the book closes with a skilful integration of all the data - tracing the paths of birth, life and death of stars on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. This book is based on a widely acclaimed series of articles on stellar astronomy which appeared in the magazine Sky and Telescope. It provides an invaluable introduction for observers and students.
