Ultraviolet photometry from the Orbiting Astronomical Observatory. XI - The 1971 eclipse of 32 Cygni

We observed the 1971 eclipse of 32 Cyg at regular intervals from November 1 to 15 with the wide-band filter photometers aboard OAO-2. Data have been reduced for seven filter bands with effective wavelengths between 4250 and 1430 A. Both the constancy of the light near mid-eclipse for the shorter wavelengths, and the derived energy distribution of the B component over all of these wavelengths indicate that the eclipse was total. The spectral types determined from the photometry of the two components are B5 and K4 Ib, after correction for interstellar reddening of 0.10 mag in B-V.
