Elemental Abundances of Sharp-Lined Pop I Main Sequence B, A, and F Stars and Pop II A Stars
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 August 2017
Extract
The elemental abundances of late B and early A stars should be among the most reliably derived as these stars have well known atmospheric physics, and non-crowded optical spectra with lines of many species with good oscillator strengths. We obtained elemental abundances of sharp-lined stars from high dispersion, S/N > 50, spectra taken at DAO and KPNO. We performed fine analyses using ATLAS6 and more recently ATLAS9 model atmospheres. Our papers (mostly in MNRAS) contain consistent studies of about 35 B3 to F7 superficially normal, Mercury-Manganese (HgMn), Am, and Field Horizontal Branch (FHB) A stars. The abundances of the normal main sequence B, A, and F stars are indicators of Galactic metallicity during the most recent epoch of Galactic history.
