Abstract

To determine the physical conditions of the gaseous envelope of this star the authors analyze its spectrum in the ultraviolet range (λ1250 - 3100 Å) on the basis of the data supplied by the International Ultraviolet Explorer satellite (IUE). The results show that the envelope has a small rotational speed. In this envelope the narrow and deep lines of Fe II, Ni II, and Ti III are originated. In a deeper thin region that rotates with the star the lines of Al III and - apparently - of Si IV are present. These lines show broad profiles due to a high rotational speed.
