An Extended FUSE Survey of Diffuse O VI Emission in the Interstellar Medium
We present a survey of diffuse O VI emission in the interstellar medium(ISM) obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE).Spanning 5.5 yr of FUSE observations, from launch through 2004 December,our data set consists of 2925 exposures along 183 sight lines, includingall of those with previously published O VI detections. The data wereprocessed using an implementation of CalFUSE version 3.1 modified tooptimize the signal-to-noise ratio and velocity scale of spectra from anaperture-filling source. Of our 183 sight lines, 73 show O VIλ1032 emission, 29 at >3 σ significance. Six of the 3σ features have velocities |vLSR|>120 kms-1, while the others have |vLSR|<=50 kms-1. Measured intensities range from 1800 to 9100 LU (lineunit; 1 photon cm-2 s-1 sr-1), with amedian of 3300 LU. Combining our results with published O VI absorptiondata, we find that an O VI-bearing interface in the local ISM yields anelectron density ne=0.2-0.3 cm-3 and a path lengthof 0.1 pc, while O VI-emitting regions associated with high-velocityclouds in the Galactic halo have densities an order of magnitude lowerand path lengths 2 orders of magnitude longer. Although the O VIintensities along these sight lines are similar, the emission isproduced by gas with very different properties.Based on observations made with the NASA-CNES-CSA Far UltravioletSpectroscopic Explorer. FUSE is operated for NASA by Johns HopkinsUniversity under NASA contract NAS5-32985.
| Speckle Interferometry at the US Naval Observatory. VIII.
The results of 2044 speckle interferometric observations of doublestars, made with the 26 inch (66 cm) refractor of the US NavalObservatory, are presented. Each speckle interferometric observation ofa system represents a combination of over a thousand short-exposureimages. These observations are averaged into 1399 mean positions andrange in separation from 0.16" to 14.97", with a mean separation of2.51". This is the eighth in a series of papers presenting measuresobtained with this system and covers the period 2001 March 18 through2001 December 30.
| Two-colour photometry for 9473 components of close Hipparcos double and multiple stars
Using observations obtained with the Tycho instrument of the ESAHipparcos satellite, a two-colour photometry is produced for componentsof more than 7 000 Hipparcos double and multiple stars with angularseparations 0.1 to 2.5 arcsec. We publish 9473 components of 5173systems with separations above 0.3 arcsec. The majority of them did nothave Tycho photometry in the Hipparcos catalogue. The magnitudes arederived in the Tycho B_T and V_T passbands, similar to the Johnsonpassbands. Photometrically resolved components of the binaries withstatistically significant trigonometric parallaxes can be put on an HRdiagram, the majority of them for the first time. Based on observationsmade with the ESA Hipparcos satellite.
| HD 30187 B and HD 39927 B: two suspected nearby hot subdwarfs in resolved binaries
In doing a B_T, V_T photometric solution for close Hipparcos doublestars, based on the observations with the Tycho instrument of theHipparcos satellite, we discovered two very blue subluminous componentsof HD 30187 and HD 39927. The position of the components on anobservational HR diagram implies their being sdO or sdB hot subdwarfs.The only previously known sdO component of a visual binary, HD 113001 B,is also confirmed by our photometric data. The two new candidate hotsubdwarfs have parallaxes 8.25 and 10.17 mas, respectively, and withangular separations of about 0.35 arcsec, the orbital periods must be ofthe order of 100 years. This should make it possible to determine theirmasses from observation. Based on observations made with the ESAHipparcos satellite.
| Infrared flux excesses from hot subdwarfs. II. 72 more objects
In our search, started in February, 1994, for JHK excess fluxes amongthe hot subdwarf population as an indicator for the presence of binarycompanions, results for 72 more hot objects (=63 hot subdwarfs + 1Horizontal Branch B star + 7 white dwarfs + 1 non-subdwarf object)observed with the Carlos Sanchez CVF IR photometer (in June and October,1994), are presented. The exact number of binary hot subdwarfs hasgained renewed importance after the recent discovery of pulsators withG-F companions. The total number of candidates we propose may help toset some constraints; for example, out of 41 objects with excesses, 13may have G-type binary companions. From our new sample, 14 discoveriesof binary candidates have been found: BD+25 4655, Feige 108, HD 4539, HD149382, HD 216135, KPD 2109+440, LSI+63 198, LSIV+10 9, LSV+22 38, PG0011+221, PG 0116+242, PG 0314+103, PG 2151+100 and TON 139. Besides, 2more from reanalysis of February, 1994, data - BD+37 1977 and BD+481777, may now be found to be IR excess candidates. Two suspectedbinaries, PB 8555 and SB 7, are also confirmed. By fitting \cite[Kurucz(1993)]{kur93} model spectra and assuming zero-age main sequencecompanions, we find upper limits on the subdwarf gravities. Thedistributions of upper limits on log(g), mostly between about 5.25 and6.5, are nearly identical for both sdBs and sdOs.

| Classification of Population II Stars in the Vilnius Photometric System. II. Results
The results of photometric classification of 848 true and suspectedPopulation II stars, some of which were found to belong to Population I,are presented. The stars were classified using a new calibrationdescribed in Paper I (Bartkevicius & Lazauskaite 1996). We combinethese results with our results from Paper I and discuss in greaterdetail the following groups of stars: UU Herculis-type stars and otherhigh-galactic-latitude supergiants, field red horizontal-branch stars,metal-deficient visual binaries, metal-deficient subgiants, stars fromthe Catalogue of Metal-deficient F--M Stars Classified Photometrically(MDPH; Bartkevicius 1993) and stars from one of the HIPPARCOS programs(Bartkevicius 1994a). It is confirmed that high galactic latitudesupergiants from the Bartaya (1979) catalog are giants or even dwarfs.Some stars, identified by Rose (1985) and Tautvaisiene (1996a) as fieldRHB stars, appear to be ordinary giants according to our classification.Some of the visual binaries studied can be considered as physical pairs.Quite a large fraction of stars from the MDPH catalog are found to havesolar metallicity. A number of new possible UU Herculis-type stars, RHBstars and metal-deficient subgiants are identified.
| High-Velocity Rain: The Terminal Velocity Model of Galactic Infall
A model is proposed for determining the distances to fallinginterstellar clouds in the galactic halo by measuring the cloud velocityand column density and assuming a model for the vertical densitydistribution of the Galactic interstellar medium. It is shown thatfalling clouds with N(H I) <~ 1019 cm-2 may be decelerated to aterminal velocity which increases with increasing height above theGalactic plane. This terminal velocity model correctly predicts thedistance to high-velocity cloud Complex M and several other interstellarstructures of previously determined distance. It is demonstrated howinterstellar absorption spectra alone may be used to predict thedistances of the clouds producing the absorption. If the distance,velocities, and column densities of enough interstellar clouds are knownindependently, the procedure can be reversed, and the terminal velocitymodel can be used to estimate the vertical density structure (both themean density and the porosity) of the interstellar medium. Using thedata of Danly and assuming a drag coefficient of CD ≅ 1, thederived density distribution is consistent with the expected densitydistribution of the warm ionized medium, characterized by Reynolds.There is also evidence that for z >~ 0.4 kpc one or more of thefollowing occurs: (1) the neutral fraction of the cloud decreases to ~31+/- 14%, (2) the density drops off faster than characterized byReynolds, or (3) there is a systematic decrease in CD with increasing z.Current data do not place strong constraints on the porosity of theinterstellar medium.
| Infrared flux excesses from hot subdwarfs.
Observations of 27 hot subdwarf stars and white dwarfs have beenperformed with an IR photometer in a search for excess fluxes in the JHKbands. 22 of the objects are observed for the first time in theinfrared. In 11 of the stars a significant excess flux was found, 2 ofwhich are new discoveries: GD 274 and GD 299. We confirm the suspicionof Moehler et al. (1990) that PG0232+095 is a composite system, and wereinforce the suggestion of Thejll et al. (1991, 1994a) that Feige 34 isa composite system. The excesses are most likely due to companion stars,mainly of spectral types A - K. We estimate the subdwarf gravities,assuming zero-age main sequence companions, and thus find upper limitson log(g). For the hot sdO Feige 34 we estimate from the publishedtrigonometric parallaxes an absolute magnitude M_v_^F34^=5.6^+0.9^_-1.6_and surface gravity log(gpi_)=6.8^+0.3^_-0.7_.
| Search for EUV emission from hot subdwarfs in the ROSAT wide-field camera survey
A search for positional coincidences of catalogued hot subdwarfs withsources detected in the ROSAT wide-field camera (WFC) EUV survey isconducted. Six such coincidences are found. Optical follow-upobservations reveal four of these stars to be hot DA white dwarfs (plusone other, less certain DA), previously misclassified as subdwarfs.These five are all within the 90 percent confidence levels of the WFCsource positions, and are therefore reliable identifications with aclass of sources known to be detectable EUV emitters. The remaining staris confirmed to be a hot, helium-rich subdwarf. This star lies justoutside the 90 percent confidence level of the weak WFC source position.The possibility that this could be the first detection of EUV emissionfrom a hot subdwarf is discussed. Upper limits are derived for severalwell-known, brighter hot subdwarfs which were not detected in the WFCsurvey.
| The case low-dispersion northern sky survey. XII - A region in southern Canes Venatici
Positions, estimated magnitudes, and finding charts (when necessary) areprovided for 194 blue and/or emission-line galaxies, 15 H II regions inseven galaxies, 157 unresolved blue and/or emission-line objects,including QSO candidates, and 32 known and suspected blue stars in a 107sq deg region in Canes Venatici. The objects, whose blue magnitudes aremostly within the range 15-18, were identified on low-dispersionobjective-prism plates taken with the Burrell Schmidt telescope at KittPeak.
| The kinematics of Milky Way halo gas. I - Observations of low-ionization species
Ultraviolet interstellar line day observed with the IUE toward 70 halostars and four extragalactic sight lines are analyzed in a study of thelarge-scale kinematic properties of the Milky Way halo gas. The motionsof the low-ionization gas is focused on. Large systematic velocities arefound, and a pronounced asymmetry in the absorption characteristics ofhalo gas toward the Galactic poles is indicated. In the north,substantial amounts of material are falling toward the disk atvelocities up to about 120 km/s in the most extreme case. Toward thesouth, low-ionization material shows no extreme or systematic motions.

| The galactic corona
The IUE observations and theories involving the gaseous galactic coronaof the Milky Way are reviewed. Observational topics emphasized includeresults relevant to the z distribution, kinematics, and ionic andelemental abundances of the gas. The theories for the support,ionization, and kinematics of the galactic halo appear to require amerging of the ideas associated with the galactic fountain models andthe photoionized halo models. The Si IV found in the galactic halo islikely mostly produced by photoionization while the N V is probablymostly produced by collisional ionization in cooling fountain gas; C IVmay represent an intermediate case with important contributions fromphotoionization and from collisional ionization.
| A survey of ultraviolet objects
An all-sky survey of ultraviolet objects is presented together with astatistical analysis that leads to the conclusion that there is asignificantly higher population of hot subdwarfs lying below themain-sequence than hitherto thought. The distribution of all ultravioletobjects, main sequence ultraviolet objects, and MK unclassifiedultraviolet objects are shown in galactic coordinates, and the absolutemagnitudes and color-color diagrams for these groups are presented.Scale heights are derived, giving values similar to planetary nebulaefor the hottest groups.
| Optical observations of ultraviolet objects. II - Classification and photometry /l = 0 to 145 deg/
UBV photometry and MK spectral classification are presented for a sampleof stars originally selected as UV objects from satellite photometrywith the S2/68 experiment. Although most stars of the sample arespectroscopically normal, a number of hot, subluminous stars were alsofound. Radial velocities are given for some of the stars observed. It isproposed that the majority of the apparently normal early B stars athigh galactic latitudes which are not runaway stars are subluminousdisc-population analogues of horizontal branch B stars of Population II.
| Search for variability in hydrogen-poor stars. I - Preliminary results of photoelectric observations for six stars
The evolutionary status of hydrogen-poor stars is assessed.Photoelectric observations of six objects are reported as a first stepin a long-term project devoted to a search for variability of a largesample of hydrogen-poor stars. The observed stars exhibit phenomena ofmicrovariability with an amplitude of the order of 0.1m or less. Twoextreme helium stars are examined: a period in the range of0.162d-0.164d is found for BD + 10 deg 2179 with P = 0.1079962d for BD +13 deg 3324. It is noted that the mass-losing O subdwarf (sdO) BD = + 37deg 443 exhibits short-term fluctuations with a time-scale of severalminutes and long-term variations on a scale of months.
| Picture gallery - A structured presentation of OAO-2 photometric data supported by OAO-2 spectrophotometric data and UBV, ANS and TD1 observations
Graphs are presented for the stellar fluxes of 531 stars in the5500-1330 A wavelength range, which have been divided into 52 categorieson the basis of spectral types. The merging of medium band interferencefilter photometry, UBV photometry, ANS photometry and TD1 fluxes, aswell as the ordering of the objects, should prove helpful in studies ofinterstellar reddening, luminosity effects, bandwidth effects, andcomparisons with model stellar atmospheres. The agreement between thevarious UV photometric systems for early-type stars is generally betterthan 0.10 mag. A list of stars whose photometric properties indicatestellar or interstellar anomalies is also provided.

Ultraviolet magnitudes for 531 stars observed with the WisconsinExperiment Package on OAO 2 are tabulated. It is noted that these dataconstitute a subset of the OAO 2 data on file at the National SpaceScience Data Center. The tabulation contains previously published dataall reduced to a uniform magnitude system. It is pointed out that theobservations were obtained with the medium band interference filterphotometers. Eleven magnitudes are given designated by their centroidwavelengths.
| Spectral atlas of helium-rich stars
An atlas of coude spectra of 33 helium-rich O- and B-stars and 11comparison stars in the 3700-4600 A spectral range is presented. Theatlas comprises stars with temperatures from 10,000 to 60,000 deg K inwhich He lines are visible in the spectra, and includes variable Hestars; stars with spectral types O8 to B5 and magnitudes (m(v)) lessthan or equal to 11.0 are considered. The purpose of the atlas is togive a sample of spectra in which, from the observational point of view,the differences caused by certain physical parameters includingeffective temperature, logarithm of the gravity and observed rotationalvelocity, can be judged by eye. Mechanisms for He enrichment in theatmosphere are also discussed.

| A survey of high-latitude regions at balloon ultraviolet wavelengths
The results of approximately a 200 square degree relatively deep surveyof high-latitude regions at balloon ultraviolet wavelengths arepresented. Ultraviolet photometry is combined with ground-basedspectrography to improve or extend knowledge on specific cases. Theobserved local space densities of hot stars are compared with thosederived by other studies; the data suggest that the density of SdO's isnot significantly higher than what can be expected from ground-basedstudies. In addition, three stars near F0 which show an ultravioletexcess are briefly discussed.
