| 内容記述 | A high resolution ultraviolet spectrum of the helium rich degenerate LDS 678A, obtained with the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) satellite is presented. LDS 678A is the coolest metallic line generate (DQ or DZ) yet observed with the IUE scale. These observations provide a detailed line profile of the strong C I 2479 absorption line with equivalent width (W sub 2479 = 2.35 plus or minus 0.06 angstroms) from which theoretical line profile fits yield a C abundance (log C/He = 6.4). The presence of carbon in a helium rich atmosphere lends credence to the notion that LDS 678A is a transitional case between the DB white dwarfs with nearly pure helium atmospheres and the helium rich DQ white dwarfs which exhibit carbon bands. Corrected for an inferred pressure shift for the C I line, a gravitational redshift is deduced from which a most probable mass of 0.55 solar mass is derived. |
