Initial Science Results from the EUVE Observatory

The EUVE four-color, all-sky, all-EUV band, sky survey began on July 24, 1992. Initial science results from this survey as well as results obtained serendipitously during aspects of the instrument verification phase will be presented. Objects detected include B stars seen in the band centered at 600 Angstroms, stellar flares seen in several late-type stars, an extragalactic source, several white dwarfs seen in long wavelength bandpasses, and several bright EUV sources not detected by the English Wide Field Camera on the ROSAT Satellite. Finally, examples of some of the kinds of science which can be expected to be carried out during the Guest Observer phase of the mission will be presented. This work has been supported by NASA contracts NAS5-30180 and NAS5-29298.
