| Description | The final report on project NAG5-78, 'IUE Observations of B Supergiants in the Large Magellanic Cloud', a collaborative effort between Garmany (U. of Colorado), Sonneborn (Goddard Space Flight Center) and Fitzpatrick (Princeton Univ.) is presented. Over 90 B supergiants in the Large Magellanic Cloud with the IUE satellite, using the low dispersion mode were observed. These stars were chosen because they resemble the precursor star to SN 1987a, and a data base in the continuing effort to understand why the precursor star was a blue, not a red supergiant was needed. The observations were all reduced and made into an atlas, and efforts to understand the evolutionary history of stars of the H-R diagram are underway. |
