Elemental abundances in the Hg - Mn star γ Corvi
نویسنده
چکیده
Spectral data obtained at ESO, Observatoire de Haute-Provence and with the IUE covering the 120 910 nm spectral range allowed us to determine the abundances of 21 elements in the atmosphere of themoderately fast rotatingHg-Mn star γ Corvi.We find that helium, carbon, nitrogen, magnesium, aluminium, silicium, sulfur, chromium, iron and nickel are underabundant with respect to solar values. Beryllium, boron, calcium, phosphorus, titanium, manganese, copper, zinc, gallium and yttrium are overabundant by factors up to 2.5 dex. The oxygen abundance is found to be solar. This pattern is not unusual among Hg-Mn objects.

We present a detailed chemical abundance analysis of the parent star of the transiting extrasolar planet TrES-1. Based on high-resolution Keck/HIRES and HET/HRS spectra, we have determined abundances relative to the Sun for 16 elements (Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Y, and Ba). The resulting average abundance of < [X/H] > = −0.02± 0.06 is in good agreement with initial ...

The eclipsing and double-lined spectroscopic binary system V453 Cygni consists of two early B-type stars, one of which is nearing the terminal age main sequence and one which is roughly halfway through its main sequence lifetime. Accurate measurements of the masses and radii of the two stars are available, which makes a detailed abundance analysis both more interesting and more precise than for...
متن کاملProbing the High-Redshift Universe with Quasar Elemental Abundances
The heavy elements near QSOs provide unique measures of the star formation and chemical evolution in young galactic nuclei or pre-galactic condensations. Studies of quasar abundances also naturally address a variety of questions regarding the physics of QSO environments, including the Baldwin Effect emphasized at this meeting. Here I review the status of quasar abundance work.
