Scientific paper

Using the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory's 1.2-m telescope we have built up a large collection of spectra on stars from the Hyades Cluster, the Coma Clusters, and selected H-beta standards. These spectra cover the entire range from H-beta to H-alpha. The H-beta line has a long history of being used as a temperature index and more recently calibration of a H-alpha index has been reported (Vautier et al. 2005, BAAS, 207, 2804). We will present preliminary results of a spectrophotometric comparison of temperature indicies from each of the Hydrogen lines.
