Abstract

We report the results of observations of short time-scale variability in the Hydrogen Balmer lines and HeI lines in the hot B star ηUMa. Spectral observations were carried out with the low-resolution slitless spectrograph (R∼200) installed on the 60 cm Carl Zeiss telescope in the Andrushivka Observatory, Ukraine. Spectra were obtained with a time resolution in the sub-second range. It has been found that the hot B star ηUMa shows rapid variations in the Hydrogen lines Hβ, Hγ, Hδ, Hε and the Helium lines HeI 5016Å HeI 5047Å, as well as variations in the atmospheric oxygen lines. This can be interpreted that their variations are non-radial pulsations and strong stellar wind.
