Abstract

Eleven diffuse interstellar features have been studied in the spectra of dust-embedded stars in Cyg OB2 (VI Cyg) (including a Wolf-Rayet star) and field stars in the same direction. The equivalent widths of the lines are all strongly correlated with each other and with E B−V , but there is virtually no correlation with D line strength for these stars. The wavelength positions and half-widths of the diffuse lines appear to be the same for all stars studied.
