We present high resolution spectroscopy of the yellow symbiotic star AG Draconis with ESPaDOnS at the {it Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope}. Our analysis is focused on the profiles of Raman scattered ion{O}{VI} features centered at 6825 AA and 7082 AA, which are formed through Raman scattering of ion{O}{VI}$lambdalambda$1032 and 1038 with atomic hydrogen. These features are found to exhibit double component profiles with conspicuously enhanced red parts. Assuming that the ion{O}{vi} emission region constitutes a part of the accretion flow around the white dwarf, Monte Carlo simulations for ion{O}{VI} line radiative transfer are performed to find that the overall profiles are well fit with the accretion flow azimuthally asymmetric with more matter on the entering side than on the opposite side. As the mass loss rate of the giant component is increased, we find that the flux ratio $F(6825)/F(7082)$ of Raman 6825 and 7082 features decreases and that our observational data are consistent with a mass loss rate $dot Msim 2 times 10^{-7} {rm M_{odot} yr^{-1}}$. We also find that additional bipolar components moving away with a speed $sim 70{rm km s^{-1}}$ provide considerably improved fit to the red wing parts of Raman features. The possibility that the two Raman profiles differ is briefly discussed in relation to the local variation of the ion{O}{VI} doublet flux ratio.

In this papper we present the analyses of the six (1998, 1997, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2005) last outbursts of AG Draconis on the basis of low resolution visual spectroscopy. A new method to determine the Zanstras temperature of the hot ionizing source from the optical Hb and HeII emission lines has been used. As a results we obtained the evolution of the individual outburst on the H-R diagram.

We present the high resolution spectra of the D type symbiotic stars V1016 Cygni and HM Sagittae obtained with the Bohyunsan Optical Echelle Spectrograph (BOES), and investigate the double-peaked asymmetric profiles of the Raman scattered O VI 6825. By adopting a wind accretion disk model, we assume that the O VI emission region is described by a Keplerian thin disk. The Raman scattering occurs in a neutral region near the giant, taking in the form of a slow stellar wind, part of which is ionized by the strong UV radiation from the hot white dwarf. Using a Monte Carlo technique, we compute the line profiles that are modulated by the slow spherical stellar wind from the giant component with the ionization front approximated by a hyperboloid. In order to account for the asymmetry and the existence of a central dip in the profiles, we add an O VI resonance scattering region between the hot white dwarf and the giant star which hinders the incidence of slightly blue O VI photons upon the H I region. Overall good fits to the observed data are obtained from our model, which lends support to the accretion disk emission model in these objects. The best fitting parameters for V1016 Cyg are $v_o=30{rm km s^{-1}}$, $v_infty=11{rm km s^{-1}}$, and $v_{c}=10{rm km s^{-1}}$, where $v_o$, $v_infty$ and $v_{c}$ are the velocity of the outer disk rim, the terminal velocity of the giant wind, and the velocity component of the resonance scattering O VI region along the binary axis, respectively. Similar fitting parameters $v_o=27{rm km s^{-1}}$, $v_infty=10{rm km s^{-1}}$ and $v_{c}=9{rm km s^{-1}}$ are obtained for HM Sge. We also investigate the effect of a hot spot in a disk that is well known in accretion disks in cataclysmic variables.
The modeling of UV and optical spectra emitted from the symbiotic system AG Draconis, adopting collision of the winds, predicts soft X-ray bremsstrahlung from nebulae downstream of the reverse shock with velocities > 150 km/s and intensities comparab le to those of the white dwarf black body flux. At outbursts, the envelop of debris, which corresponds to the nebula downstream of the high velocity shocks (700-1000 km/s) accompanying the blast wave, absorbs the black body soft X-ray flux from the white dwarf, explains the broad component of the H and He lines, and leads to low optical-UV-X-ray continuum fluxes. The high optical-UV flux observed at the outbursts is explained by bremsstrahlung downstream of the reverse shock between the stars. The depletion of C, N, O, and Mg relative to H indicates that they are trapped into dust grains and/or into diatomic molecules, suggesting that the collision of the wind from the white dwarf with the dusty shells, ejected from the red giant with about 1 year periodicity, leads to the U-band fluctuations during the major bursts.

AG Dra is a symbiotic variable consisting of a metal poor, yellow giant mass donor under-filling its Roche lobe, and a hot accreting white dwarf, possibly surrounded by an optically thick, bright accretion disk which could be present from wind accret ion. We constructed NLTE synthetic spectral models for white dwarf spectra and optically thick accretion disk spectra to model a FUSE spectrum of AG Dra, obtained when the hot component is viewed in front of the yellow giant. The spectrum has been de-reddened (E(B-V) = 0.05) and the model fitting carried out, with the distance regarded as a free parameter, but required to be larger than the Hipparcos lower limit of 1 kpc. We find that the best-fitting model is a bare accreting white dwarf with Mwd = 0.4 Msun, Teff = 80,000K and a model-derived distance of 1543 pc. Higher temperatures are ruled out due to excess flux at the shortest wavelengths while a lower temperature decreases the distance below 1 kpc. Any accretion disk which might be present is a only a minor contributor to the FUV flux. This raises the possibility that the soft X-rays originate from a very hot boundary layer between a putative accretion disk and the accreting star.
Optical spectroscopy study of the recent AG Peg outburst observed during the second half of 2015 is presented. Considerable variations of the intensity and the shape of the spectral features as well as the changes of the hot component parameters, cau sed by the outburst, are discussed and certain similarities between the outburst of AG Peg and the outburst of a classical symbiotic stars are shown. It seems that after the end of the symbiotic nova phase, AG Peg became a member of the classical symbiotic stars group.
