C,N,O in lambda Boo stars and in composite spectra
Apr, 2005Citations per year
Abstract: (arXiv)
The selective abundance of C, N, O (almost solar) with respect to that of other elements (underabundant) in lambda Boo stars has been interpreted as a characteristic peculiarity of these objects, when considered as single stars. We show here that a similar selective abundance is predicted from the composite spectra resulting from two unresolved stars in the same temperature range as the lambda Boo stars.- STELLAR ATMOSPHERES
