Evidence for a corona of beta geminorum
- 1. Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics, University of Colorado
Description
A spectrometer was used on the satellite Copernicus to observe a chromospheric L alpha emission from the K0 giant beta Gem at 1218.4 A. This emission appears to be in the corona at temperatures near 260,000 deg K, since the ion it is identified with requires 77.4 eV to be produced.
