We present a comprehensive study of Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) spectra (912-1190 A) of two members of the PG1159 spectral class, which consists of hydrogen-deficient (pre-) white dwarfs with effective temperatures in the…
We report early FUSE observations of the very hot DA white dwarfs PG1342+444 and REJ0558-371. Detection of photospheric absorption lines allows us to estimate the abundances of C, O, Si, P, S and Fe, the first measurements reported for DA…
We have analyzed FUSE observations of six hot white dwarf stars: four DA white dwarfs with T_eff >= 45000K, the DAO Feige55 (T_eff = 55000K), and the DA CD -38 10980 (T_eff = 24000K). Photospheric lines from SiIV, PV, and SVI can be…
We have analyzed the Far Ultraviolet Spectrocopic Explorer (FUSE) spectra of two U Gem-Type dwarf novae, SS Aur and RU Peg, observed 28 days and 60 days (respectively) after their last outburst. In both systems the FUSE spectra (905 - 1182…
We present new FUV observations of the pulsating DA white dwarf G226-29 obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE). This ZZ Ceti star is the brightest one of its class and the coolest white dwarf observed by FUSE. We…
We report on the detection of pulsations in the far ultraviolet (hereafter FUV) light curves of PG1219+534, PG1605+072, and PG1613+426 obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) in time-tagged mode (TTAG). Exposures of…
The Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) has surveyed a large sample (> 100) of active galactic nuclei in the low-redshift universe (z < 1). Its response at short wavelengths makes it possible to measure directly the far…
