Abstract
The K2V-DA binary V471 Tau has an extended atmosphere. By using the DA white dwarf as a probe, we can probe the atmosphere along the line of sight to the white dwarf with a spatial resolution of order 10,000 km. We observe absorption lines from C II through N V in absorption against the DA photospheric continuum. The velocities are those of gas in co-rotation with the K star.
