- W1967938412 abstract "Under the auspices of this ADP program, a systematic study was made of IUE archival images in order to extract spectra of the Lyman alpha region and to measure the stellar Lyman alpha flux for as many late-type stars as possible. The Lyman alpha resonance line is a powerful cooling channel for the hot chromospheres of solar-type stars, but has not been studied before in any systematic fashion across the H-R diagram. A major deterrent which has limited the use of Lyman alpha in the study of stellar chromospheres is the contamination of this spectral feature caused by the scattering of solar Lyman alpha photons in the Earth's exosphere. This scattered light is monochromatically imaged through the entrance slot of the IUE telescope and is superposed onto the stellar spectrum. In all but the shortest exposures with IUE, this 'geocoronal emission' overwhelms the stellar flux and makes it impossible to directly measure the strength of the stellar chromospheric feature. The IUESIPS processing contains no provision for correcting standard G.O. output products for this contamination. The first task was to develop a scheme for removing the geocoronal flux, specifically from low-dispersion spectra taken with the Short-Wavelength Camera of IUE. The strategy adopted was to fit a 'sky model' to the spatially-resolved geocoronal emission observed through the large science aperture of the telescope, using the spectral orders on either side of the central ones where the stellar emission is concentrated. The model emission was then subtracted from the observed image, leaving behind the corrected stellar Lyman alpha emission. The details of this fitting procedure are described. Having devised a successful method for removing the unwanted geocoronal emission, the correction procedure was applied to 366 archival images which, from inspection of the photowrites in the IUE browse file, seemed especially promising. In this survey, Lyman alpha emission were eventually detected in the spectra of 227 stars representing a wide range in age, temperature, and luminosity throughout the cool half of the H-R diagram. Previously fewer than 30 such stars had been measured, and an order of magnitude increase in the numbers of stars having Lyman alpha flux measurements is provided. Multiple measurements were made for 52 stars and upper limits on chromospheric flux were derived for another 48 stars." @default.
