A 5-A dc are was struck between pure chromium electrodes in nitrogen at 1 atm. The chromium I excitation temperature, averaged over atoms in the center of the arc image, determined by relative emission-line intensities in the near infrared, was found to be (4893 ± 190) °K. The extent of self-absorption was determined from the same lines. Relative f values for 63 lines of chromium I, including the 21 used initially, were determined with precision of 0.33 in log gf. Existing instrumentation and current improvements to the experiment are described.

We have obtained R ≈ 570 resolution K band spectra of eight sources in the Galactic Center, including four sources within the IRS 16 cluster, IRS 13, IRS 1W, and the compact He I emission line sources AF (also known as AHH) and AHH NW. We have also obtained R ≈ 570 H and K band spectra of nine galactic and LMC early–type mass–losing stars, including Ofpe/WN9 and WN stars. The spectra of both the Galactic Center sources and the comparison stars show a wide range of behavior in the He I (1.70 μm, 2.06 μm, 2.11 μm) and H I (Brackett series) lines. We find significantly larger He I equivalent widths in the AF source and two galactic early type mass losing stars than in any of the LMC stars. Several of the Galactic Center He I sources are found to have higher He I velocity widths than any of the galactic or LMC early type mass losing stars. At least one source, IRS 13, shows a strong red wing to the He I 2.06 μm emission.

A coordinated series of ground-based optical and IUE observations of BY Dra variables was undertaken to follow the spectral variation of these stars over one cycle. In the first series 20 LWR and 19 SWP trailed spectra were taken of AU Mic over a three day period 4-6 August 1980 .In Figure 1 we show the mean integrated fluxes for the strong emission lines in the SWP spectra of AU Mic over the observed phase interval of 0.14 to 0.8 together with an approximate V light curve determined by the FES on IUE. From comparison of the emission line intensities and FES magnitudes in Figure 1 several points emerge.
