Abstract

The analysis of two spectra of the spectroscopic binary B9 Hg star HD 1909 recorded by the SWP camera on board the International Ultraviolet Explorer reveals one instance of variations of the far-ultraviolet flux of this star from 1300 up to 2000 Å. The first TESS lightcurve of HD 1909 on the MAST website is periodic with a period close to 7 days which is very close to an earlier period found for the variations of the Strömgren index u. The FUV variations, which occur over about 5 yr, could be caused by the motion of the lower mass companion.
