abstract:

    line_1:        Mira B is powered by accretion from the wind of the red giant companion. The
    line_2:        aim of this work is to understand better the process of accretion by obtaining
    line_3:        spectra and images of the flow. Also, as has been proposed for other objects
    line_4:        powered by gravitational accretion, we hope to determine if there is also some
    line_5:        outflow from Mira B

  question:        3
    section:       1
    line_1:        The observations are of two sorts. First, we request spectra of the bright
    line_2:        emission lines detected with IUE. Accurate line profiles should be compared
    line_3:        with models for the inflow. Second, we request an image in H beta light to see
    line_4:        if there is some collimation or other sort of geometrical alignment of the
    line_5:        outflow that is apparently inferred from the P Cygni profiles in the IUE data.

  question:        4
    section:       1
    line_1:        1. Ultraviolet lines are not detectable from the ground.
    line_2:        2. The scale of the system is 1"; this is too close a seperation for good
    line_3:        ground based observations.
    line_4:        3. Mira is usually quite bright, it is difficult to observe Mira B with a
    line_5:        bright nearby star.

  question:        7
    section:       1
    line_1:        The HRS data will be reduced with the HRS team software at Goddard.
    line_2:        The FOC data will be reduced by the FOC team members associated with this
    line_3:        project.

  question:        10
    section:       1
    line_1:        UCLA has a VAX and a helpful staff for our departmental computer.

  question:        13
    section:       1
    line_1:        The aim of this work is to understand better the process of accretion onto Mira
    line_2:        B from its red giant wind companion and to see if there is any outflow powered
    line_3:        by the gravitational accretion. We will obtain ultraviolet spectra and an FOC
    line_4:        image to investigate this star.
