Description
1 microfiche (12 unnumbered pages) : negative, illustrations; 11 x 15 cm.
Summary
Research based on observations made with the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) satellite. "The density sensitivity of the emission lines within the UV 0.01 multiplet of C II near 2325 A was examined in additional late type giants and supergiants with deep LWR high dispersion exposures. The new data support the original contention based on these lines that noncoronal red giants possess geometrically extended chromospheres."--NTIS abstract.
