Scientific paper

A total of 61 well exposed low dispersion LWP observations were obtained from the brightest normal M-type Mira variables around their pulsation cycles. By observing Mg II throughout the cycle, the intent is to determine the shock luminosity and duration, and the density in the upper atmospheres of Miras. The data also provide a mechanism for probing the radiative cooling in postshock regions of the atmosphere as a function of time. A summary of data acquired for IUE programs SRHLW and MGIEB is presented.
