Title: Egress spectra of the new eclipsing supergiant 22 Vulpeculae

The system thus joins Zeta Aurigae systems in which a hot dwarf provides a probe of extended atmospheres by going behind a cool supergiant. The IUE data were obtained at scattered dates following two conjunctions. Outside of eclipse, a wind from the system with terminal velocity of 300 k/sec is conspicuous in the Mg II lines. Enhanced Fe II absorption seen well away from geometrical eclipse implies an extensive envelope around the G star. There is a close correspondence between the 22 Vul spectra and those of interacting binaries, suggesting common properties due to relatively dense, warm plasmas in these systems.Read More
