GHRS observations of the line_3: C II (UV 1) 1335 A and (UV 0.01) 2325 A multiplets will be used along with line_4: observations of the C I lines near 1655 and 1994 A to constrain the temperatures line_5: and densities in model chromospheres. The C II (UV 0.01) lines will also be line_6: used to estimate the turbulence in these chromospheres. The (confusing) far UV line_7: spectrum of the M supergiants will be explored with the GHRS. line_8: GHRS observations of Fe II lines will be used to study the dependence of line_9: the wind velocity on radial distance above the photosphere. line_10: High quality Fe II and Mg II profiles will be line_11: acquired to search for discrete velocity features and the presence of line_12: circumstellar absorption within the profiles. line_13: The photospheric absorption-line spectrum (2579-2675 A) of Arcturus will be line_14: observed in the echelle mode. Medium resolution observations of Fe II and line_15: Mg II in the dusty, very luminous star Mu Cep will provide information on the line_16: effect of dust and very low gravity on the wind velocity field. line_17: *** this file contains the Cycle 1 observations only *** ! ! end of abstract general_form_proposers: lname: CARPENTER fname: KENNETH mi: G. inst: NASA - GODDARD SPACE FLIGHT CENTER country: USA ! lname: LINSKY fname: JEFFREY mi: L. inst: COLORADO, UNIVERSITY OF country: USA ! lname: ROBINSON fname: RICHARD mi: D. inst: CSC - ASTRONOMY PROGRAM country: USA ! ! end of general_form_proposers block general_form_text: question: 3 section: 1 line_1: Cycle 1 Target: GammaCru line_2: Grating Wavel. exposure time (min) line_3: (delete due to D1 loss: G140L 1224-1800 17.7 x 2 exp.

IUE has been used for a preliminary reconnaissance of all these line_3: targets, except for AlphaSco A (which has a hot companion that cannot be line_4: excluded from the larger IUE apertures). We now require the higher sensitivity, line_5: wavelength resolution, and S/N attainable with the HRS and ST to improve and line_6: extend our studies of the physical conditions characterising the outer line_7: atmospheres of these cool luminous stars. Only HRS is capable of providing us line_8: with the very high precision line profiles, fluxes, and absolute velocities line_9: required for our program. ! question: 5 section: 1 line_1: line_8: none ! question: 6 section: 1 line_1: Wavelength calibration exposures for all the echelle observations are needed to line_2: provide us with a velocity scale accurate to about 1 km/sec. This accuracy is line_3: required to allow us to study the dependence of the wind flow velocities on line_4: distance above the photosphere of each star. ! question: 7 section: 1 line_1: The data will be reduced and analyzed primarily with in-house software line_2: developed for analysis of IUE data and with new software to be developed line_3: in-house. Software developed by the GHRS IDT and the proposers will be line_4: used in the reduction and analysis of these observations. The NLTE line_5: MULTI code will be used to construct model chromospheres and spectra which line_6: will be compared with the observations. line_7: References documenting the methods of analysis to be used in this investigation line_8: are given in the Scientific Justification section of this proposal. ! question: 10 section: 1 line_1: See section 7. ! question: 12 section: 1 line_1: The targets observed in this program are: line_3: 1.

Our goals are to determine, from analysis of chromospheric emission line_3: lines, the physical conditions in their wind regions/chromospheres and to study line_4: the dependence of wind velocity on radial distance above the photosphere. The line_5: UV photospheric absorption line spectrum of Arcturus will also be studied at line_6: very high resolution. ! !end of general form text general_form_address: lname: CARPENTER fname: KENNETH mi: G. category: PI inst: NASA - GODDARD SPACE FLIGHT CENTER ! lname: ROBINSON fname: RICHARD mi: D. inst: CSC @ NASA-GODDARD SPACE FLIGHT CENTER addr_1: CODE 681 city: GREENBELT state: MD zip: 20771 country: USA phone: (301)-286-4530 ! lname: LINSKY fname: JEFFREY mi: L. inst: JILA - UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO addr_1: CAMPUS BOX 440 city: BOULDER state: CO zip: 80309 country: USA phone: (303)-492-7838 ! ! end of general_form_address records fixed_targets: targnum: 1 name_1: HD108903 name_2: GAMMA-CRU descr_1: M3 III pos_1: RA=12H28M22.727S+/-0.1", pos_2: DEC=-56D50'00.33"+/-0.1" equinox: 1950 pm_or_par: Y pos_epoch_bj: B pos_epoch_yr: 1950.00 ra_pm_val: 0.001933 ra_pm_unct: 0.000133 dec_pm_val: -0.2670 dec_pm_unct: 0.0020 rv_or_z: V=+21 fluxnum_1: 1 fluxval_1: V=1.62+/-.2,TYPE=M3 III ! ! end of fixed targets !
