Scientific paper

Photoelectric observations were made of four N stars(HD 51208, HD 75021, V1942 Sgr, and RU Vir) at carefully chosen discrete wavelengths between 7000 Angstrom and 11000 Angstrom with 30 Angstrom bandpass width. Their effective temperatures have been derived by fitting the blackbody radiation curve to the observed continuum intensities at 7800 Angstrom, 9000 Angstrom, and 10800 Angstrom. The resulting temperature ranges from 2500 K to 2900 K. It is probable that almost all the N stars belong to this range of temperature. However, the temperatures of very red N stars cannot be well determined due to large variability and redistribution of their energy arising from the graphite shells around them.
