Abstract (from CDS):

High-resolution optical spectra (UES/WHT) of the extreme metal-poor post-AGB star HR 4049 were obtained at four different orbital phases. The spectra cover the wavelength region from 3650A to 10850A at a resolution of R=5.2x104. These observations are supplemented with four high-resolution spectra of the NaI D1 & D2 and CaII K lines at R≃105 (CAT/CES). The optical spectrum shows 217 spectral lines: the Balmer series (Hα - H35), the Paschen series (P9 - P23), NI, OI and numerous CI lines. We show that the lines of Hα, Hβ, Hγ and NaI D show significant changes in profile between different observation dates. Nine components were identified in the profile of the NaI D lines of which three are circumstellar and six interstellar. The stronger CI lines are asymmetric and we derive a post-AGB mass-loss of {dot}(M)=6±4x10–7M☉/yr from the asymmetry. The [OI]6300A line has been detected in emission at the system velocity and we argue that the emission is from an almost edge-on disk with a radius of about 20R*.
