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.

The aim of this work is to investigate certain assumptions that have been made in calculating line profiles and equivalent widths of neutral helium lines in early type stars. The effect of electron scattering on the continuum flux is investigated and a curve of growth analysis carried out to study this effect. The theories involved in calculating the line absorption coefficient are also investigated.

The X-ray source 1E 1024.0-5732, serendipitously discovered with the Einstein Observatory, was previously interpreted as a rapidly spinning neutron star, accreting matter from its massive early-type companion, the emission-line star Th35-42. However, new ROSAT data do not support the presence of a neutron star in this source. A more likely scenario, also indicated by recent optical spectroscopy, involves X-ray emission from the colliding winds of a WR+O binary. Surprisingly, this star remained unnoticed during an extensive optical search for new Wolf-Rayet stars, carried out in this region of sky. Stimulated by the discovery of this first X-ray selected WR star, we have undertaken a search for similar objects in the data from the ROSAT All Sky Survey.
