چکیده
We discuss results of an exploratory non-LTE analysis of two metal-rich A-type supergiants in M31. Using comprehensive model atoms we derive accurate atmospheric parameters from multiple indicators and show that non-LTE effects on the abundance determination can be substantial (by a factor 2-3). The non-LTE analysis removes systematic trends apparent in the LTE approach and reduces statistical uncertainties. Characteristic abundance patterns of the light elements provide empirical constraints on the evolution of metal-rich massive stars.

Abundance ratios relative to iron for carbon, nitrogen, strontium and barium are presented for a metal-rich main sequence star ([Fe/H]=–0.74) in the globular cluster ω Centauri. This star, designated 2015448, shows depleted carbon and solar nitrogen, but more interestingly, shows an enhanced abundance ratio of strontium [Sr/Fe]≈1.6 dex, while the barium abundance ratio is [Ba/Fe]≤0.6 dex. At th...
