Be Star Spectroscopy Using The Uca Fiber-Fed Spectrograph, Scott Austin
Be Star Spectroscopy Using The Uca Fiber-Fed Spectrograph, Scott Austin
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Beginning in June 2003, undergraduate students and the author have spectroscopically monitored bright Be stars using a custom built fiber-fed spectrograph attached to the UCA Observatory 11-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope. We have obtained 0.8 Angstrom/pixel resolution spectra of the H-alpha line for over forty Be-Stars. Some have been observed on multiple dates in order to detect any temporal changes. Line profiles, velocities, and observed variations for some of these stars will be presented.
