Mariner 9 observations of $beta$ cephei stars

Journal Article · · Publ. Astron. Soc. Pac., v. 87, no. 518, pp. 587-592
OSTI ID:4189105
Ultraviolet spectra of three $beta$ Cep variables and a nonvariable star of similar spectral type were observed by the ultraviolet spectrometer on Mariner 9. A significant light variation at 1400 A may have been detected for $beta$ Cep. The variable stars have mean ultraviolet spectra similar to that of the nonvariable star and do not show any significant short-period spectral variations. (3 figs, 11 refs) (auth)
