Scientific paper

We present the results of our long-term homogeneous spectroscopy of T~Tau, the prototype T~Tauri star. We demonstrate that the star's absorption spectrum varies in time and is weakly correlated with variations of brightness and emission spectrum. With increasing intensities of emission lines, the veiling of the photospheric absorption decreases. It is suggested that the absorption-spectrum variations are due to variable additional emission superimposed on the photospheric spectrum and that the amount of veiling is inversely correlated with the emission-line strength in the spectrum of the star.
