- Abstract
Axial rotation of a star plays an important role in its evolution, physical conditions in its atmosphere, and appearance of its spectrum. We have analyzed CCD spectra of three stars for which their projected rotational velocity remarkably differs when derived from the Ca II λ 3933 Å and MgII λ 4481 Å lines. We derived effective temperatures and surface gravities using published uvbyβ photometries and computed synthetic spectra. Comparing observed line profiles of the two lines with the computed ones, we estimated values of v sin i. We also derived radial velocities by means of the cross-correlation function. HD8837 is known to be a shell star with pronounced narrow absorption cores in the Balmer lines as well as in the strong metal lines; however, we do not confirm the emission component in the core of H β. HD47964 has been discovered by Hipparcos to be a double. However, in our spectra we do not find traces of the other star. Based on the Hipparcos data, we estimated that the other star would be a main sequence A4 star with an extremely high rotational velocity resulting in wiping out any traces of spectral lines of the companion. HD183986 is known to be a triple star. However, we have found a manifestation of a so far not discovered companion of the component HD183986A and estimated it as a main sequence A5 star having v sin i of about 150 km/s.
