HDE 245770
J. C. Bhattacharyya, Indian Institute of Astrophysics,
Bangalore, telexes: "K. K. Ghosh, N. K. Rao, T. P. Prabhu, Y. D.
Mayya, K. Kuppuswamy, and A. Muniandi obtained CCD spectra of
the Be x-ray binary HDE 245770 (= A0535+26) with the
1-m reflector of Vainu Bappu Observatory, Kavalur, between
Nov. 22 and 25. The spectra displayed emission lines of
H-alpha, C II (657.8, 658.2 nm), and He I (667.8 nm). Presence
of C II emission lines suggests that either an outburst of
the Be star (Baade et al. 1988, A.Ap. 198, 211) or x-ray
emission from the compact companion (Ghosh et al. 1989, Ap.J.
344, 437) has taken place. Ultraviolet and x-ray observations
would be of interest."
