Magnetic Stars, 2011, pp. ... Since the discovery of spectral variations in the Hg II line of the star And, a few other HgMn stars have been reported to present line profile variations. In this work we present preliminary results of a study of spectral variability in 28 single­lined HgMn stars. Using between two and six spectra per star, obtained with the FEROS spectrograph of the ESO, we quantitatively analyze the line profile variations for various chemical elements. ...

... Polish scientists at the Space Research Centre, Polish Academy of Sciences, in Wroclaw, south-west Poland, have constructed an instrument called SphinX (short for Solar PHotometer In X-rays), which is an X-ray spectrophotometer, that will obtain spectra in the energy range 0.5--15 keV in 256 energy channels with frequency of up to 100 times a second. ... SphinX is part of a package of instruments known as TESIS (PI Prof. Sergei Kuzin, Lebedev Institute, Moscow). ... Space Research Centre, . ...
