THE SPECTRUM OF NOVA SAGITTARII 1982 IN THE TRANSITION PHASE

Spectra of Nova Sgr 1982 have been obtained at the end of October, nearly one month after its discovery, with the one-prism spectrograph equipped with a Carnegie-RCA S-20 image tube (dispersion 60 Å mm₁¹ at Hγ) at the Cassegrain focus of the 122-cm telescope. The spectra are characterized by wide em...

Description
Summary:Spectra of Nova Sgr 1982 have been obtained at the end of October, nearly one month after its discovery, with the one-prism spectrograph equipped with a Carnegie-RCA S-20 image tube (dispersion 60 Å mm₁¹ at Hγ) at the Cassegrain focus of the 122-cm telescope. The spectra are characterized by wide emission lines of H, O I, N ii, Fell. They indicate that the nova was in its late transition phase. Identification of the lines recorded from λλ4100 to 8500 are given in Table I.
