[Olivier GARDE]

According to the alert message of Valerie, here's a spectrum of 28 CMa taken last night in difficult situation :
- Low target in the sky
- some fog during shooting.

A spectrum taken early this morning local time with the object overhead but under poor seeing.
R ~ 13,000
S/N > 300

I've uploaded it to BeSS.

Hello Paul,

Nice spectrum.
Is it a normalized spectrum?
It's important to let continuum's shape natural, it could give informations.

As your wavelength bandwidth is wide enougth, I should put Ha line at a bit blue edge to get He 6678 line.

Cheers,

Benji

Hi Benji,

No continuum removal. Just IR correction.

Cheers,

Paul

Paul,
Well done!
Good spectrum.

Another Lhires spectrum submitted to BeSS this morning. R ~ 14,000 @ 6532Å, S/N > 300.

The attached plot shows a comparison with last week's upload.

Hello

I took a new spectrum of 28 Cma last night and the night before. The Ha emission continusly increase. Relative continuous: more than 5 unit now.
LHIRES 2400T, Telescope Newton 200mm. R=17000. From Abu dhabi, lat=25°N. This star is high is the sky. Alt=35°
