Abstract
  • Previous Ca ii K observations of the B-type star HD 83206 have revealed putative high-velocity interstellar clouds (HVCs) at Local Standard of Rest (LSR) velocities of -80 and -110 kms -1. Similar results were also found for the sightline towards HD 135485. In this article, we show that these absorption lines are in fact due to stellar S ii features. As the Ca ii K absorption line in B-type stars is often used to assess the presence and distance of HVCs, we also present a very high quality spectrum of HD 83206 in the Ca ii K region (~ $\pm 4$ Åor $ \pm 300$ kms -1), so that in the future confusion between stellar lines and HVC features may be avoided.
