Comparison of the abundances in the stars and in the HII regions of the Magellanic Clouds
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 July 2016
Abstract
Both HII regions and F supergiants are young objects, and are, therefore, supposed to have the same abundances for all elements, especially for C, O and S, which offer a good opportunity to check the abundance determinations made by two different techniques. For oxygen and sulfur the agreement is good but the discrepancy of the carbon abundance cannot be easily explained.
