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.

Traditionally, in X-ray fluorescence analysis for the determination of elemental compositions, the fluorescence is measured from the irradiated side of the sample. The composition measurements obtained by this method are sensitive to a gradient in composition as a function of depth of the element being measured. This report presents a simple method for measuring a mean composition for an element segregated in layers applicable to thin samples so that the fluorescence can be measured on the side opposite to that being irradiated. It is shown that for a particular relation between the angle of incidence of the primary radiation and of the detection angle on the opposite side of the sample that a mean concentration can be measured for an element which is independent of the composition in the separate layers.

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.

Research dealing with warm-up decrement shows there is diversity in measurement of this phenomenon. It would be advantageous to have a standardized method of measurement that is objective and does not require the determination of a peak trial. One such technique is orthogonal polynomial regression.
