We present in an electronic form the measurements of the relative
positions of 129 visual double and multiple systems performed by Dr
E. Van Dessel during the years 1968-1974. In the summer of 1968, 64
measurements of 38 different systems were collected at the Observatoire
de Nice. From 1969 till 1974, 295 measurements of 91 systems were
collected at the Observatoire royal de Belgique. The original booklet of
the observations was put at our disposal for this task performed by one
of us (S.R.). In addition, we also present the residuals in the sense
(Observed-Calculated) based on the orbits listed in the Sixth Catalog
of Orbits of Visual Double Stars (Hartkopf and Mason, 2012). <P />2

Various experiments have definitely demonstrated that one-micron
accuracy (0.″06) on the definition of stellar images on CdC
plates cannot be claimed, as it was speculated back in 1999. More
realistically, a 2-3 micron accuracy is achievable, getting worse
toward the survey magnitude limit, with an average magnitude error
of 0.3. The level of astrometric accuracy corresponds to a 0.″2 -
0.″3 error in position at Epoch 1900, which, once used as first
Epoch for proper motion determination in combination with modern epoch
observations, can produce errors at the level of 2-5 mas/yr, thereby
allowing to detect stellar motions larger than 0.″01/yr, which at a
distance of 500 pc from the Sun correspond to ~25-60 km/s tangential
velocity. Therefore, the AC/CdC heritage collection can be regarded
as a highly valuable first-epoch material, e.g., for the realization
of a Tycho-2 extension to fainter magnitudes (~15 photographic),
especially in selected areas where radial velocity data are available,
for the exploration of stellar kinematics beyond our solar neighborhood.

Title: Photometric Variability of the Gravitational Lens 0142-100
(UM 673)

2001AJ....122.1692S Altcode: 2001astro.ph..7312S
We present the results of a photometric CCD monitoring of the
gravitational lens system UM 673 that took place from 1995 to 2000. In
total, the doubly imaged quasar (QSO) was observed in the R band during
29 photometric nights, using optical telescopes with dimensions in
the range 0.6-1.3 m. We detected a significant variability in the
total light of the UM 673 system, that is, in the light of the two
QSO images plus the lensing galaxy. With respect to the magnitude of
the gravitational lens system at its discovery, in 1986, UM 673 was
0.3 mag brighter. Furthermore, our 1996 December measurements show
that between 1995 November and 1997 October the system became even
brighter, reaching a magnitude difference of 0.5 mag with respect to
its discovery value. We also present R magnitudes and V-R colors of
seven field stars situated in the vicinity of the lens, based on a 3.5
month monitoring during the year 2000. Based on observations made with
(1) the 60 cm Bochum and the ESO 90 cm Dutch telescopes, at La Silla,
Chile, (2) the 1.2 m telescope at Kryonerion Observatory, Greece,
(3) the 1.3 m telescope at Skinakas Observatory, Crete, Greece, and
(4) the European Space Agency OGS telescope operated on the island of
Tenerife by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias in the Spanish

The working principle of liquid mirror telescopes (LMTs) is first
reminded as well as their advantages and disadvantages over classical
telescopes. For several obvious reasons (access to regions near the
south galactic pole, galactic center, good image quality, ...),
a best site location for such a LMT is somewhere in the Atacama
desert. At latitudes near -22 - -29 degree, a deep (B = 24 mag.) LMT
survey will approximately cover 90 square degrees at high galactic
latitude, specially useful for gravitational lensing studies, for the
identification of various classes of interesting extragalactic objects
(cf. clusters, supernovae, etc. at high redshift) and subsequent
follow-up observations with 8m-class telescopes. A short description
of the handling of data products is also presented.

2001ASPC..238..125D Altcode: 2001adass..10..125D
An international facility to store, catalogue and digitise photographic
plates is under development at the Royal Observatory of Belgium
in Uccle-Brussels. The creation of such a facility requires a
well-organized effort and substantial resources. However, the cost is
not exorbitantly high if one takes advantage of the new generation of
commercial, photogrammetric, flatbed scanners, which use the latest
CCD technology. These scanners are relatively inexpensive, very fast,
and comparable to dedicated scanners like PDS instruments in geometric
and radiometric precision.

Title: UBV absolute CCD photometry and differential astrometry of
a sample of visual double stars with A-type primaries
Authors: Shatsky, N.; Sinachopoulos, D.; Prado, P.; van Dessel, E.
1999A&AS..139...69S Altcode:
We present V magnitudes, (B-V) and (U-B) colours of the components of
111 visual double stars and their relative position measurements rho and
theta . The primaries are of spectral class A; the angular separation is
in the 2farcs5 -8arcsec range. The observations were made at the 61-cm
reflector of University of Toronto Southern Observatory, Chile. The
obtained photometric results are of a moderate quality for absolute
values (0.04() m (mag) in V and about 0.02() m in the (B-V) and (U-B)
colour indices) and more precise in Delta V and Delta (U-B), Delta
(B-V) (0.023() m and 0.015() m, respectively). We find that about 60%
of secondaries are also of spectral type A; 56% of pairs have Delta
(B-V) less than 0.1() m. The two-colour diagram reveals significant
offset of objects from the curve of unreddened Main Sequence stars. A
comprehensive survey of stars in the close vicinity to the objects
is also presented. The final astrometric accuracy of ~ 0farcs01 in
rho and 0fdg1 in theta provides additional measurements for study
of relative motion of the components. Based on observations made at
University of Toronto Southern Observatory, Las Campanas, Chile. Tables

A description is given of the activities of an international
working group created with the aim of obtaining both photometric and
astrometric observations of visual double and multiple stars with
angular separations in the range of one to fifteen arcseconds, that
formed part of the HIPPARCOS Input Catalogue. The scientific aims and
realisations of this European network are given. About 50 observational
missions have been carried out in both hemispheres according to a
pre-defined protocol. We describe the general and specifically designed
methods used for the reduction of large amounts of CCD observations
of double stars and give an outline of the results already presented
and soon to be expected. Based on observations made at La Silla (ESO,

Title: CCD astrometry and UBV photometry of visual
binaries. II. Visual double stars with mainly G - type primaries
and relatively small angular separation
Authors: Sinachopoulos, D.; van Dessel, E.
1998A&AS..130..299S Altcode:
Differences Delta V of magnitude and Delta (B-V) and Delta (U-B)
colours, as well as separations and position angles of 42 relatively
close double stars are presented. The selection criteria of our sample
are: the relatively small separation (between 2.5 and 5 arcseconds),
magnitude difference under 1.25 mag, and mainly G-type primaries. The
CCD observations, performed at the 90 cm Dutch telescope at ESO,
were made using the Bessel U, B and V filters; the astrometry was
done in the V filter only. From the analysis of the photometric
data we conclude that 16 binaries in our sample have components with
practically the same T_eff, since they have almost the same colours;
one binary has components with identical characteristics. We also note
the good internal accuracy of the astrometric CCD measurements. Based
on observations made at ESO La Silla, Chile.

Title: A list of Hipparcos very wide visual double stars for the
astrometric calibration of imaging with CCDs
Authors: Sinachopoulos, Dimitrios; van Dessel, Edwin; Geffert, Michael
1998AcHA....3..195S Altcode:
We have selected from the Hipparcos catalogue (ESA 1997) a list
of 307 very wide visual double stars, which can be used for
performing an accurate astrometric calibration of CCD detectors
mounted on telescopes. Angular separations are between 10 and
100 arcsec, mainly around 20 arc seconds and less than 35 arc
seconds. Our list can be obtained from the Internet at the address
http://midas.oma.be/www_root/serverdoc/www/ccdlas.html or it can
be obtained from the authors directly. All information in our
list was extracted, or computed from the Hipparcos catalogue. The
format is simple containing one line per visual double star. (RA,
Dec) coordinates of the component with the smallest RA value are
given first. This component is obviously not always the primary. The
epoch of the coordinates is the Hipparcos one: 1995.25. The following
columns give V magnitudes and (B-V) colours of both components, their
angular separation, and Hipparcos identifiers (HIC numbers). For
the information that will enable you to compute the current value
of the angular separation of each wide visual double star used for
calibration, you have to search in the main Hipparcos catalogue. Each
component of the double stars in our list has a separate entry in
this catalogue. According to Sinachopoulos and van Dessel (1998), the
Hipparcos catalogue contains some erroneous entries for wide visual
double stars components as well. For this reason, it is advised to
use at least three double stars of the list each time you calibrate
your detector. All double stars in our list have been introduced to
the Hipparcos mission by Brosche and Sinachopoulos (1988, 1989). In
case you get problems or doubts on the correctness of the Hipparcos
results for a particular double star, you can use information of these
two publications for an additional control.

1997SoPh..175..571M Altcode:
The Extreme Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (EIT) on board the SOHO
spacecraft has been operational since 2 January 1996. EIT observes
the Sun over a 45 x 45 arc min field of view in four emission line
groups: Feix, x, Fexii, Fexv, and Heii. A post-launch determination
of the instrument flatfield, the instrument scattering function, and
the instrument aging were necessary for the reduction and analysis
of the data. The observed structures and their evolution in each
of the four EUV bandpasses are characteristic of the peak emission
temperature of the line(s) chosen for that bandpass. Reports on the
initial results of a variety of analysis projects demonstrate the range
of investigations now underway: EIT provides new observations of the
corona in the temperature range of 1 to 2 MK. Temperature studies of
the large-scale coronal features extend previous coronagraph work
with low-noise temperature maps. Temperatures of radial, extended,
plume-like structures in both the polar coronal hole and in a low
latitude decaying active region were found to be cooler than the
surrounding material. Active region loops were investigated in detail
and found to be isothermal for the low loops but hottest at the loop
tops for the large loops.

1997SoPh..175..601D Altcode:
We present the first observations of the initiation of a coronal mass
ejection (CME) seen on the disk of the Sun. Observations with the EIT
experiment on SOHO show that the CME began in a small volume and was
initially associated with slow motions of prominence material and a
small brightening at one end of the prominence. Shortly afterward,
the prominence was accelerated to about 100 km s<SUP>-1</SUP> and
was preceded by a bright loop-like structure, which surrounded an
emission void, that traveled out into the corona at a velocity of
200-400 km s<SUP>-1</SUP>. These three components, the prominence,
the dark void, and the bright loops are typical of CMEs when seen at
distance in the corona and here are shown to be present at the earliest
stages of the CME. The event was later observed to traverse the LASCO
coronagraphs fields of view from 1.1 to 30 R⊙. Of particular interest
is the fact that this large-scale event, spanning as much as 70 deg in
latitude, originated in a volume with dimensions of roughly 35" (2.5
x 10<SUP>4</SUP> km). Further, a disturbance that propagated across
the disk and a chain of activity near the limb may also be associated
with this event as well as a considerable degree of activity near the
west limb.

Title: UBV absolute CCD photometry and differential astrometry of
close visual double stars, with G-type primaries
Authors: Nakos, T.; Sinachopoulos, D.; van Dessel, E.
1997A&AS..124..353N Altcode:
We present V magnitudes, (B-V) and (U-B) colours of close visual
double star components, and their differences as well as separations
and position angles of 40 visual double stars. The common properties
of the members of this sample are the small angular separation rho,
which is less than 7”, and the common spectral type of the primaries,
which are of G-type. The observations made with the Bessel U, B and V
filters, while the astrometry was performed in the V filter only. For
the observations, the CCD camera attached to the Cassegrain focus of
the 90 cm Dutch telescope, at La Silla, Chile, had been used. From the
analysis of the data we concluded that from the sample of the fourty
double stars observed seven proved to be physical pairs, while the rest
must have common origin components. Based on observations made at ESO
La Silla, Chile. Tables 1 and 2 are only available in electronic form

The SOHO (SOlar and Heliospheric Observatory) satellite was launched on
December 2nd 1995. After arriving at the Earth-Sun (L1) Lagrangian point
on February 14th 1996, it began to continuously observe the Sun. As
one of the instruments onboard SOHO, the EIT (Extreme ultraviolet
Imaging Telescope) images the Sun's corona in 4 EUV wavelengths. The
He II filter at 304 A˚ images the chromosphere and the base of the
transition region at a temperature of 5 - 8 x 10^4 K; the Fe IX-X
filter at 171 A˚ images the corona at a temperature of ~ 1.3 x 10^6 K;
the Fe XII filter at 195 A˚ images the quiet corona outside coronal
holes at a temperature of ~ 1.6 x 10^6 K; and the Fe XV filter at 284
A˚ images active regions with a temperature of ~ 2.0 x 10^6 K. About
5000 images have been obtained up to the present. In this paper,
we describe also some aspects of the telescope and the detector
performance for application in the observations. Images and movies
of all the wavelengths allow a look at different phenomena present in
the Sun's corona, and in particular, magnetic field reconnection.

and up to 1.5R_⊙ above the limb, with a pixel size of 2.6\arcsec. By
using four different emission lines, it provides the global temperature
distribution in the quiet corona, in the range 0.5 to 3*E(6) K. Its
excellent sensitivity and wide dynamic range allow unprecedented views
of low emission features, even inside coronal holes. Those so-called
“quiet” regions actually display a wide range of dynamical phenomena,
in particular at small spatial scales and at time scales going down
to only a few seconds, as revealed by all EIT time sequences of
full- or partial-field images. The initial results presented here
demonstrate the importance of this wide-field imaging experiment for
a good coordination between SOHO and ground-based solar telescopes,
as well as for science planning.

We present V magnitudes, (B-V) and (U-B) colours of close visual
double star components, and their differences as well as separations
and position angles of 40 visual double stars. The common properties
of the members of this sample are the small angular separation ρ,
which is less than 7", and the common spectral type of the primaries,
which are of G-type. The observations made with the Bessel U, B and V
filters, while the astrometry was performed in the V filter only. For
the observations, the CCD camera attached to the Cassegrain focus of
the 90 cm Dutch telescope, at La Silla, Chile, had been used. From the
analysis of the data we concluded that from the sample of the fourty
double stars observed seven proved to be physical pairs, while the
rest must have common origin components. (3 data files).

The Extreme-ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (EIT) will provide wide-field
images of the corona and transition region on the solar disc and up to
1.5 R⊙ above the solar limb. Its normal incidence multilayer-coated
optics will select spectral emission lines from Fe IX (171 å), Fe
XII (195 å), Fe XV (284 å), and He II (304 å) to provide sensitive
temperature diagnostics in the range from 6 × 10<SUP>4</SUP> K to 3
× 10<SUP>6</SUP> K. The telescope has a 45 x 45 arcmin field of view
and 2.6 arcsec pixels which will provide approximately 5-arcsec spatial
resolution. The EIT will probe the coronal plasma on a global scale,
as well as the underlying cooler and turbulent atmosphere, providing
the basis for comparative analyses with observations from both the
ground and other SOHO instruments. This paper presents details of the
EIT instrumentation, its performance and operating modes.

Numerical instabilities are a common problem in least square fitting of
mathematical functions to observational data. Procedures corresponding
to the expert systems method can then be very helpful. Expert Systems
are computer programs offerring problem solving methods based on facts
and rules which formalize the knowledge on special topics. The idea
behind such expert system programs is that the users, the "experts",
know the possible limit values of the variables to be determined by
the least square fitting.

The major scientific objective of the EUV Imaging Telescope (EIT)
is to study the evolution of coronal structure over a wide range
of spatial and temporal scales and temperatures. A second strategic
objective is to provide full disk synoptic maps of the global corona
to aid in unifying SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory)/Cluster
investigations. EIT will also provide images to support the planning
of detailed spectroscopic investigations by the CDS (Coronal Diagnostic
Spectrometer) and SUMER spectrometers in SOHO. EIT observations will be
made in four narrow spectral bands, centered at 171 A (Fe 9), 195 A(Fe
12), 284 A (Fe 15), and 304 A (He 2) representing restricted temperature
domains within a wide temperature range from 40,000 to 3,000,000
K. The results will be images of the solar atmosphere from the upper
chromosphere and transition region to the active region corona. These
maps, made at appropriate time intervals, will be used to study the fine
structures in the solar corona and to relate their dynamic properties
to the underlying chromosphere and photosphere. Dynamic events in the
inner corona will be related to white light transients in the outer
corona, and observations of the internal structure of coronal holes
will be used to investigate origins of the solar wind.

this paper we emphasize the study of the physics and dynamics of the
mass transfer at periastron and subsequent X-ray flaring, which is a
typical problem of the X-ray/Be binary system class.

The design of the multibandpass Extreme-Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope
designed for 1996 launch on board the Solar Heliospheric Observatory
is described. The telescope will observe simultaneously distinct
temperature ranges in the solar corona, defined by well chosen emission
lines. Images in four narrow bandpasses at wavelengths ranging from 17
to 31 nm will be obtained using normal-incidence multilayered optics
deposited on quadrants of a Ritchey-Chretien telescope. Results are
presented on the performances measured on a 2/3 scale mock-up. The
bandpasses could be adjusted to better than 1 percent in wavelength.

The transient X-ray binary system A 0535+26/HDE 245770 was monitored
at different wavelengths since its discovery as X-ray emitter. These
coordinated observations reveal correlations in the variability of the
optical and X-ray emissions. During activity periods of the system, UV
discrete absorption components in Si IV and C IV resonance lines whose
velocities vary between -300 and -600 km/sec were detected. The study
of the narrow absorption components at the expected activity epochs
(periastron passages of the neutron star) simultaneously with X-ray,
optical, and IR observations is essential for a better knowledge of
the wind structure of the Be star and its interaction with the neutron
star. The physics and dynamics of mass transfer at periastron and
subsequent X-ray flaring, are emphasized.

The X-ray/Be transient system A 0535+26/HDE 245770 was monitored
in X-ray, UV, and optical wavelengths to study the lighting of X-ray
outbursts. The X-ray observations were carried out with ASTRON satellite
on April 19, 1985 and March 17, 1986, dates of expected X-ray outbursts
as predicted by the 111 day orbital periodicity. The measured fluxes
are 6.5 mCrab and less than 5 mCrab in April 1985 and March 1986,
respectively. The IUE observations were performed on January 29,
and on March 13 and 15, 1986, predicted periods of quiescence and
a bit earlier than an outburst, respectively. Optical spectroscopic
observations were performed too. The absence of two X-ray expected
outbursts implies either an inaccuracy of 111 day period or a temporary
turning-off of the source.

The characteristics of the Be/X-ray binary system HDE 245770/A0535+26
are examined from UV, visual, IR and X-ray data. A sequence of
observations in the optical preceding an X-ray outburst is interpreted
as the ejection of a shell by the Be primary. An evolutionary scenario
is presented that produces a system like HDE 245770. An effective
temperature of 26000±2000K is derived for the Be star. The mass loss
rate through stellar wind from the primary is determined. The Be star
is not filling its Roche lobe and there is no accretion disk around
the compact companion. The system configuration can be simulated
with an evolution code allowing for the simultaneous evolution of two
components - a 20 M_sun; primary and a 15 M_sun; secondary - producing
Be/X-ray binaries of this kind, with systems like φ Per as progenitor.

observations performed on Nov 10, 1983 and Jan 23, 1984 are entirely

before the X-ray outburst show H gamma in absorption and H alpha in
weakened emission. In September and in January 1984 before the X-ray
outburst the star presents diminished IR excess. Mass loss is discussed.

Observations of the Be X-ray source A 0535 + 26 are described. The
features of the source changed notably between Feb. and Oct. 1981:
the magnitude of the optical companion decreased by 0.2 M in less than
one year, in passbands U, B. and V. The infrared magnitude decreased by
0.6 M in the K band and the ultraviolet flux is nearly invariable. The
variations in different wavelength regions are probably due to changes
in the circumstellar envelope. November 1981 high resolution IUE spectra
clearly show C IV and Si IV lines with P Cygni profiles. February
and October 1980 profiles did not show this characteristic (due to
intrinsic variability of the source and/or a consequence of the smaller
S/N ratio of the spectra). From the Si IV and C IV P Cygni profiles,
a mass loss rate of 6 X 10 to the minus 9th to 10 to the minus 8th
power M/yr is estimated. From the infrared excess, a mass loss rate
of 6 x 10 to the minus 6th power M/yr is obtained. Radio observations
at 18 cm give an upper limit of 36 mJy from A 0535+26.

1982IAUS...98..347D Altcode:
The parameters of Be X-ray binaries, the most important spectral lines
of three such sources, and the evolutionary tracks and positions of Be
components are discussed. It is found necessary to study the variability
of the entire spectral range, from X-rays to IR, in order to determine
whether Be X-ray sources are binaries. Although an optical orbit has
not yet been derived for any of the sources in question, two arguments
are adduced on behalf of their binary character: the fact that the
X-ray pulsation is the signature of a rotating compact object, and
the determination that several classical Be stars are binaries. Such
systems could be precursors for Be X-ray systems.

Title: Mass Determination of Massive X-Ray Binaries
Authors: De Loore, C.; Mouchet, M.; van Dessel, E. L.; Burger, M.
1982Msngr..27...14D Altcode:
Massive X-ray binaries consist of anormal component of spectral type 0
or B which is transferring matter to a compact companion, generally a
neutron star, with possibly one exception, Cyg X-1, where the compact
component could be a black hole. These compact stars have enormous
magnetic fields (of the order of 1012 gauss), and extremely large
gravities; accreted matter will be accelerated to velocities of half
the light velocity, and guided by the field lines to restricted areas
near the magnetic poles, the hot spots. These regions acquire in this
way temperatures of the order of 107 K, and X-rays are generated. The
X-rays are transported outwards as beams, and since the compact objects
rotate rapidly, X-rays are observed as pulse-shaped beams.

Title: Ultraviolet observations of the Be star and X-ray binary 4U
1145-61 (=HD 102567 = HEN 715) obtained with the IUE.
Authors: De Loore, C.; Burger, M.; Hensberge, H.; van Dessel, E. L.
1981A&A...104..150D Altcode:
Two high resolution spectrograms in the range of 1150-2050 A were
obtained by the IUE satellite, and from the spectrograms line lists
of the stellar and interstellar absorption were compiled. The most
important ions were found to be He (+); one, two and three times ionized
C and Si; two and three times ionized O, three times ionized Mn; and
two, three and four times ionized N. Eight interstellar molecular bands
of (C-12)(O-16) of the fourth positive system were found, although
the (C-13(O-16) bands were not detected. Due to uncertainties and
the observed ionization fractions in other early-type stars, it is
concluded that the mass loss rate of HD 102567 is between 10 to the
-9th and 10 to the -10th solar mass/yr, with a most probable value of
3 x 10 to the -10th solar mass/yr.

IUE spectra of the possible X-ray binary V 861 Sco (HD 152667) taken
at several orbital phases. Contemporary optical spectroscopy, uvbyβ
and infrared photometry are also reported. <P />The UV spectrum is
quite normal for the spectral type (B0Ia), with P Cygni profiles
on a number of lines. Several of these lines show sharp multiple
absorption components. The high ionisation interstellar species are not
significantly enhanced by possible Xray emission. There are no large
phase dependent variations in the UV spectra available; the optical
spectra show significant changes, particularly at Hα, which is seen
in absorption and emission at different times. <P />Our photometry
confirms earlier results in general. The IR data do not support an
earlier suggestion of a non-stellar secondary; indeed, our data lend
no support to the hypothesis of a compact companion. The mass loss
rate is found to be 1 10<SUP>-5</SUP> M<SUB>sun</SUB> yr<SUP>-1</SUP>.

Title: Data Inferred from Visual Binaries
Authors: van Dessel, E. L.; Dommanget, J.
1980IrAJ...14..226V Altcode:
A star can be identified as a binary by observing the separation between
the components or their common proper motion, or by taking micrometer
measurements. Orbital parameters are known through interferometry and
statistical material on binaries provides evidence for theories on star
formation. Different populations of binaries exist that vary in their
orbital period, indicating that different formation processes are at
work. Where the assumed Jeans mass nearly equals the total mass of
the system, a single nucleus will be surrounded by matter organizing
itself into one or more companions or into planets. Examination of the
mass ratio of binary systems is biased toward detection of equal mass
systems, but additional data may correct this. A discontinuity appears
to exist between stellar/stellar and stellar/planetary mass ratios,
but this must be regarded with much caution because of the increasing
difficulty of observing the variability of radial velocity.

UV spectra (obtained by the IUE) of HD 77581, associated with the binary
X-ray source Vela X-1, show a spectrum typical of an early B-type
supergiant. However, the P Cygni profiles of strong resonance lines
show substantial variations with orbital phase. These variations can be
ascribed to the changing ionization state in the stellar wind caused by
the X-ray emitting companion. X-ray and spectroscopic and photometric
optical observations, simultaneous with the IUE observations, indicate
behavior consistent with previous epochs.

The first analysis of ultraviolet spectroscopic observation obtained
with the IUE satellite of the Be stars HD 102567, X Per, and Gamma
Cas, which all are associated with X-ray sources, is presented. The
ultraviolet data for HD 102567 (4U 1145-61) consist of low-resolution
spectra covering the wavelength range 1150-3200 A. The ultraviolet
fluxes are consistent with a reddening of the source of E(B-V)=0.45
magnitude. For this source a complementary program of visible photometry
and spectroscopy and X-ray photometry was carried out. During the IUE
observations the source 4U 1145-61 was not detectable in X-rays while
the spectroscopic observations show dramatic intensity variations of
the lower Balmer lines. For the bright Be stars Gamma Cas and X Per
high-resolution (0.2 A) ultraviolet spectra covering the wavelength
range 1150-3200 A have been obtained. The asymmetric profiles of
resonance lines which are present in the spectra of both Gamma Cas
and X Per indicate mass loss rates of 7 x 10 to the -9th and 10 to
the -8th solar masses/yr, respectively.

High dispersion spectra of V861 Sco (HD 152667) taken with International
Ultraviolet Explorer at several orbital phases are presented, as
well as simultaneous optical spectroscopy, and UVBY and infrared
photometry. The UV spectrum is normal for a BOIa supergiant; a number
of lines show P Cygni profiles with, in several cases, sharp multiple
absorption components. No large phase dependent variations in the UV
are detectable. The optical spectra reveal significant changes at H, He
I 6678 and especially at H which is seen in emission and in absorption
at different times. The velocity variability is strongly correlated
with the outward velocity in the sense that velocities further out
in the wind show more variability. The infrared photometry does not
support the idea of a compact secondary. An evolutionary scenario,
starting from a ZAMS-system of 80 solar masses + 10 solar masses is
developed leading to an actual system of a 34 solar masses (BOI a)
primary with a 10 solar mass (B2V) companion. The primary which just
ignited helium in the core is nearly filling its Roche lobe, and will
start soon (or has just started) a case B of mass transfer. The mass
loss rate is estimated from the UV at 1.5 x 10 to the minus 6th power
solar masses/year, and from theoretical considerations of the system
parameters at 2.5 x 10 to the minus 6th power solar masses/year infrared
excess points to 0.00005 solar masses/year.

The first UV spectroscopic observations of the X-ray source Scorpius
X-1, obtained with the IUE satellite, are presented. The UV data
consist of low-resolution spectra in the 1150-3200 A wavelength range,
and show emission lines arising in Si II and IV; C III and IV; N III,
IV, and V; O IV and V, and He II. Also discussed are observations
using visible photometry and spectroscopy, and infrared and X-ray
photometry. Significant changes between the strengths of the emission
lines with phase are observed when the source changes its UV and
optical brightness. Significant variations are also observed in the
UV continuum brightness of Sco X-1 which approximately match those
observed simultaneously in the visible B band. The color excess of
Sco X-1 is found to be 0.35 plus or minus 0.05, and the UV continuum
energy distribution is shown to be well fitted by a bremsstrahlung
distribution.

Title: Radial Velocities of Visual Binaries
Authors: van Dessel, E. L.
1979Msngr..18....1V Altcode:
In addition to the initial chemical composition, the mass of a star is
a fundamental parameter; it determines the life of the star from its
birth, through its long or short period of luminous glory and to its
inevitable end as a compact object. And yet, few stars have actually
had their mass accurately measured. The programme that has recently
been undertaken by Dr. Edwin van Dessel of the Royal Observatory in
Brussels, Belgium, is therefore of particular importance. By obtaining
precise measurements of radial velocities of stars in double or multiple
systems, Dr. van Dessel expects soon to add new, welldetermined stellar
masses to the present, all to short list.

IUE observations providing the first ultraviolet spectroscopic data
of the X-ray source Sco X-1 are presented and discussed. The IUE data
were obtained in the low resolution mode and cover the wavelength range
1150-3200 A. Data were obtained at many different phases and cycles
in the binary period of the system of 0d.8. The short wavelength IUE
spectra are dominated by numerous emission lines in Si II, IV, C III,
IV, N III, IV, V, O IV, V and He II. The variations in the strengths
of these lines both as a function of binary phase and brightness level
of the source is discussed as well as those observed in the visible
spectra of the source. The observed line strength variations can
be explained in terms of a varying level of ionization with varying
ionising X-ray radiation emitted from the compact object.

The list of visual binaries compiled by van Dessel (1977), for which
an orbit had been computed from astrometric observations and which are
believed to be capable of yielding useful radial velocity determinations
in the near future, is updated and extended. Three kinds of systems
are included in the updated list: (1) binaries of which at least one
component has been shown to be spectroscopically double (triple and
multiple systems); (2) binaries that are suspected of containing
a third component because of the large scatter in radial velocity
values; and (3) binaries for which the semiamplitude of the relative
radial velocity variation is greater than 15 km/sec, according to the
computed orbital elements.

Considerations for the Conservative Case
Authors: De Greve, J. P.; De Loore, C.; van Dessel, E. L.
1978Ap&SS..53..105D Altcode:
The results of evolutionary computations for massive binary systems
(initial masses of the primary ≳10M <SUB>⊙</SUB>) with mass ratios
between 0.3 and 0.8 are summarized and compared with observations in
order to verify how far one can go with the conservative assumption
of mass exchange. It is found that conservative mass exchange
leads to acceptable first-order models of W-R and massive X-ray
binaries. However, the comparison between this theory and observation
reveals that for the observed systems (W-R and X-ray binaries) a
preference exists for low intial mass ratios; moreover, the X-ray
luminosities of the theoretical models are systematically too low,
though this may be due to the adopted wind model. In addition, the
influences of several parameters (distance between the components,
chemical composition, primary mass, mass ratio and atmosphere) are
examined. These parameters influence the remnant mass and any further
evolution only marginally. Attention is also given to the effect
on the system parameters of a supernova explosion of the remnant of
the mass-losing component. For a large range of systems a disruption
probability smaller than 25% is found.

Eclipse observations of total line intensities (Cr I: two groups of
lines; Ti II, Fe II and Cr II: two lines each) are interpreted in
terms of departures from LTE. The same method as described in Paper
III (van Dessel, 1974) is used. The HSRA model is used to compute
the LTE populations. A distribution of NLTE-coefficients is obtained
for each group of lines. The lines discussed in the present paper are
seen to remain in emission down to some 1000 km inside the limb. As
a consequence, interpretation is less simple than for the Fe I lines
(Paper III); population and excitation temperatures are found to be
rather divergent from Holweger's temperature, which was used for a
first approximation.

was described in Paper I (van Dessel, 1970). A few minor modifications
to the physical input are discussed in Section 2. NLTE-coefficients,
affecting the line absorption coefficient and the source function,
are introduced and discussed in Section 3. Starting from coefficients
derived from the combination T<SUB>el</SUB> (HSRA) + T<SUB>ex</SUB>
(Holweger), suitable distributions with height of the NLTE-coefficients
are determined for the most striking cases among the observed
lines. Only little deviation from the populations derived from
Holweger's temperature distribution is needed to explain the observed
line behaviour.

as a function of the height is shown for a number of lines in Figures

(as described in Paper I: van Dessel, 1970) for various solar model
atmospheres (Section 4). The model, which combines Holweger's (1967)
temperature distribution for the excitation temperature with the HSRA
model (Gingerich et al., 1971) for the electron temperature, yields
a better agreement than all pure LTE-models.

Intensities in the Photosphere-Chromosphere Transition Region
Authors: Van Dessel, E. L. J.
1970SoPh...15..322V Altcode:
This paper mainly deals with the development of a method for the
interpretation of eclipse observations in the extreme limb - lower
chromosphere transition region. We compute line profiles emitted by a
column of 1 cm<SUP>2</SUP> cross section along the line of sight and,
by integration, profiles and total (flash) intensities from a slice
of 1 cm width beyond the Moon's edge, at various heights with respect
to the solar limb. The solar models used are mentioned in Section 1;
method and approximations are described in Section 2. Calculations have
been made for some FeI lines with various equivalent widths (Table I);
the results are discussed in Section 3. It appears that the method
enables one to distinguish between the various models. Particularly
line intensities just inside the limb are very important.
