Abstract

The eclipsing binary U Cephei has proven to be of great interest in the study of stellar evolution in close binary systems. Batten (1974), Hall and Walter (1974), Rhombs and Fix (1976), Markworth (1977), and Olson (1978), among others, have recently reported on their intensive ground based studies of U Cephei. Kondo, McCluskey and Wu (1978) have investigated the ultraviolet light curves of U Cephei obtained with Astronomical Netherlands Satellite (ANS). Kondo, McCluskey and Stencel (1979) have discussed the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) spectra of U Cephei. This paper discusses results incorporating additional IUE high resolution spectra of U Cephei obtained in both far-ultraviolet and mid-ultraviolet spectral regions.
