Abstract
The analysis of four spectra of the B5 He-variable star HD 175156 recorded by the SWP camera on board the International Ultraviolet Explorer reveals one possible instance of variations of the far-ultraviolet spectral energy distribution shortwards of 1700 Å in spectra separated by 5 yr. Spectra collected over 4 consecutive days with identical exposure times do not vary, which probably rules out the possibility that HD 175156 be a rotational variable. The modeling of the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph spectrum reveals the presence of interesting resonance or low lying transitions of C i, N i, S i, P ii and several iron-peak elements, which provide interesting diagnostics of the atmosphere of this evolved sub-giant.
