Abstract

An image-tube Cassegrain spectrograph, equipped with an S-1 photocathode enabled us to obtain infrared spectra of peculiar emission-line objects, as V 1016 Cyg, HBV 475, HD 51585, HD 45677, XX Oph and CI Cyg. Many of these objects display emission lines of H I, He I, He II, O I, N I, Ca II [S II] [S III], [Fe II]. The line intensities can be used together with data from other parts of the spectrum to determine relative abundances of these ions in the shells of these objects, which may be at a critical phase of their evolution.
