چکیده

We determined stellar parameters (Teff , [m/H], θ) and E(B− V ) for all β Cephei stars observed during the IUE satellite mission. All parameters were derived by using an algorithmic procedure of fitting theoretical flux distribution (Kurucz 1996) to the IUE observations.

An asteroseismic study of the β Cephei star β Canis Majoris

We present a spectroscopic study of the β Cephei star β Canis Majoris. Hundreds of highresolution spectra were gathered during 4.5 years and the Si III line profiles centered on 4560 Å were subjected to a detailed line profile analysis. We searched for oscillation frequencies in different line diagnostics, compared them with those known from photometric studies and concluded the presence of thr...

Bd+44493: a Ninth Magnitude Messenger from the Early Universe; Carbon Enhanced and Beryllium Poor

We present a 1D LTE chemical abundance analysis of the very bright (V = 9.1) Carbon-Enhanced Metal-Poor (CEMP) star BD+44493, based on high-resolution, high signal-to-noise spectra obtained with Subaru/HDS. The star is shown to be a subgiant with an extremely low iron abundance ([Fe/H] = −3.7), while it is rich in C ([C/Fe] = +1.3) and O ([O/Fe] = +1.6). Although astronomers have been searching...

Chemical composition of extremely metal-poor stars in the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Context. Individual stars in dwarf spheroidal galaxies around the Milky Way Galaxy have been studied both photometrically and spectroscopically. Extremely metal-poor stars among them are very valuable because they should record the early enrichment in the Local Group. However, our understanding of these stars is very limited because detailed chemical abundance measurements are needed from high ...

Abundances of C , N , O in slightly evolved stars in the globular clusters NGC 6397 , NGC 6752 and 47 Tuc ⋆

Abundances of C and N are derived from features due to the CH G-band and to the UV CN band measured on high resolution (R ∼ > 40, 000) UVES spectra of more than 40 dwarfs and subgiants in NGC 6397, NGC 6752 and 47 Tuc. Oxygen abundances (or upper limits) are available for all stars in the sample. Isotopic ratios 12 C/ 13 C were derived from the CH molecular band. This is the first determination...

Abundances of heavy metals and lead isotopic ratios in subluminous B stars

Abundances of heavy metals and lead isotopic ratios in subluminous B stars Abstract. We present a detailed abundance analysis of high-resolution ultraviolet echelle spectra of five subdwarf B stars obtained with HST-STIS The goal of our observations was to test the hypothesis that pulsations in sdBs are correlated to the surface abundances of iron-group elements. We study two pulsators and thre...
