Spectroscopic observations of BF Cygni.
Abstract
Spectroscopic observations of BF Cygni performed at the Haute-Provence Observatory in 1981 August, October and November are presented. The spectrum of BF Cyg was dominated by strong emission lines of H I, He I, (O III) and (Ne III). Emission lines of He II and N III were weak. The spectrum of the star displayed dramatic variations during our observations. The intensities of Balmer lines, Balmer continuum and He I lines clearly increased from August to October, while the lines of (Ne III) and (O III) showed inverse variability.
