Description
A Copernicus spectrum of the early-type supergiant Beta Ori, extending from 1010 to 1440 A with 0.2-A resolution and from 1710 to 3215 A with 0.4-A resolution, is described. Some 1137 absorption lines are identified, and equivalent widths and profiles are computed for selected features. It is found that: (1) the Ly-alpha line is the major feature over the entire spectrum; (2) 'metals' are mostly in the first and second state of ionization; and (3) only the resonance lines of Si III and Si IV are markedly blue-shifted by about 180 km/s, but there is no evidence of P Cyg profiles.

However, detections are limited to strongly active regions because signal-to-noise ratio of the data is low.

    Non-local thermodynamic equilibrium inversions of the Si I 10827 Å spectral line
    Inferring the coupling of different atmospheric layers requires observing spectral lines sensitive to the atmospheric parameters, particularly the magnetic field vector, at various heights. The best way to tackle this goal is to perform multi-line observations simultaneously. For instance, the new version of the Gregor Infrared Spectrograph
