SummaryThe magnetic variable star 21 Per has been studied from 4 and 8 Å/mm spectra obtained with the 2.6 - meter reflector of the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory. Spectral line intensities (Wλ) and radial velocities (Vr) have been measured.

There has been a number of observational programmes that have endeavoured to investigate the atmospheric velocity fields in Cepheids (e.g., Sanford 1956, Wallerstein et al. 1992, Butler 1993). These studies measured the radial velocities of lines of different strength, excitation and ionisation potential as these provide an indication of line formation at different levels in the atmosphere. From these measurements, the presence of velocity gradients can be inferred, but determination of the magnitude of such gradients requires knowledge of the spectral line depth of formation. Through dynamical modelling we are endeavouring to ascertain what is actually being measured in the above observational programmes.

The determination of secular parallaxes of stars is usually based on meridian observations of proper motions of bright stars, this introducing known systematic errors. The mean parallaxes of stars can be obtained by means of radial velocities which are known for the bright stars. The more perspective method, the reference of stars to galaxies, is not applicable at low galactic latitudes.

The bright BOe star X Persei has been observed for over 50 years as an emission-line object and as a variable star. Throughout this time, the star displayed typical behavior for such an object. The discovery that it lies very close to the position of a weak X-ray source renewed interest in the star, which is now under close scrutiny. The probable association of X Persei with 3U 0352+30 has been subject to several discussions (Hutchings, Crampton and Redman, 1975; Margon, Bowyer, and Penegor, 1976; Hutchings and Walker 1976; Persi, Viotti and Ferrari-Toniolo 1977, 1978).
