Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The results of the spectroscopic study of the Ae Herbig star RR Tau are reported. The observations were carried out with a moderate resolution. In accordance with the presented data the Hα line exhibits a double-peaked emission profile. The blue component is weaker than or equal to the red one. Variations of the Hα equivalent width by a factor of 4–5 were found. The structure of this line also varies. On JD 2447148 a red absorption reversal of the Hα profile was observed. The Hβ spectral line exhibited both emission and absorption. On JD 2449664 the single-peak emission shifted to the short-wavelength range of the underlying absorption line and the red wing of the stellar line looked like a red-shifted absorption component of medium strength. The Hδ line was in absorption.
