Preliminary results on the radial velocity field of the ring-shaped nebula N206 in the LMC are given. Several early type stars are located inside this nebula one of them being a WC5-6 star. A discussion about the kinematics of the gas around the WR star is also given.

Several years ago a three-parameter system of stellar classification has been proposed (1, 2), for the early-type stars (O-G): it was an improvement on the two-parameter system described by Barbier and Chalonge (3).

As part of a general investigation of interstellar clouds associated with southern HII regions we have begun a high-resolution study of the sodium D-line absorption in the directions of early-type stars that are likely to be associated with or located behind the clouds.

X-rays from early-type stars are emitted by the corona or the stellar wind. The materials in the surface layer of early-type stars are not contaminated by nuclear reactions in the stellar inside. Therefore, abundance study of the early-type stars provides us an information of the abundances of the original gas. However, the X-ray observations indicate low-metallicity, which is about 0.3 times of cosmic abundances. This fact raises the problem on the cosmic abundances.

Previous studies of ultraviolet spectral classification have been insufficient to establish a comprehensive classification system for ultraviolet spectra of early-type stars because of inadequate spectral resolution. We have initiated a new study of ultraviolet spectral classification of B stars using high-dispersion IUE archival data. High-dispersion SWP spectra of MK standards and other B stars are retrieved from the IUE archives and numerically degraded to a uniform resolution of 0.25 or 0.50 Å. The spectra (in the form of plots or photowrites) are then visually examined with the aim of setting up a two-dimensional classification matrix. We follow the method used to create the MK classification system for visual spectra. The purpose of this work is to examine the applicability of the MK system (and in particular, the set of standard stars) in the ultraviolet, and to establish classification criteria in this spectral region.

Regardless of the degree of elaboration of series of models, just how can they be used for calibration purposes? And how much is this calibration sensitive to the quality of the model theory? These two questions are the basis of our discussion, which covers : I – The general principles of the use of model atmospheres in stellar calibration (1 – The two dimensional classifications; 2 – The use of the total luminosity; 3 – The cases of Vega and Sirius; 4 – The calibration of ST – Teff relation); II – The failures of the two parameters model atmospheres (1 – The observational need for more-than-two-parameters classification; 2 – The abundance of elements, the line formation, and the model atmospheres; 3 – Various sources of unadequacy of models; 4 – Envelopes or shell features; their influence on model-building; 5 – The case of HD 45677. Diagnostic of early-type stars; 6 – Various unexplained spectral features); III – The present state of the model factory (1 – The classical models; 2 – New concepts in the description of a stellar atmosphere; 3 – New approaches in model making; 4 – Conclusions).
