THE SPECTRUM OF THE VV CEPHEI STAR KQ PUPPIS (BOSS 1985) .2. ATLAS OF THE OPTICAL AND ULTRAVIOLET-SPECTRUM

We present an Atlas of the high resolution spectrum of the VV Cep M1-2Iab + Be variable KQ Pup (Boss 1985). The Atlas is based on ultraviolet observations obtained in 1979 with the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE), covering the region from 1223 angstrom to 3228 angstrom, and on Coude plates collected in 1969 at the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory, Canada, and in 1979 and in 1983 at the European Southern Observatory, Chile, covering the blue to the optical UV. The equivalent widths and radial velocities of the main features present in the optical spectra are given. Additional CAT/CES observations of H(alpha) taken in February 1984 are shown. The Atlas should be a basis for future investigation on luminous cool variables. The digitized spectra are available upon request to the authors.
