Attempt to determine stellar lyman-alpha emission-line fluxes for F stars with different metal abundances

Creators

Description

We have studied stellar Lyα fluxes for F stars of different metal abundances which are presumably older the more metal deficient they are. We describe the correction procedure for the geocoronal emission and our estimate of the correction for interstellar absorption. We find stronger than average Lyα emission for the Hyades stars and for the two close binaries HR 1354 and α Tri
