半人马座欧米茄主序列的丰度

Abundances on the Main Sequence of Omega Centauri

Laura M. Stanford, G. S. Da Costa, John E. Norris

摘要:

使用光谱合成技术计算的碳,氮和锶相对于铁的abbands比,给出了属于球状星团欧米茄半人马座的主序星和关闭星的样本。碳、氮和/或锶的变化作为[Fe/H]的函数表现出几种不同的丰度模式。碳、氮和/或锶的增强/贫化来源可能是低质量(1- 3太阳质量)和中等质量(3- 8太阳质量)的渐近巨星分支星的富集。大质量的旋转恒星产生过量的氮,而没有碳和氧的过剩也可能发挥作用。这些丰度使不同的贡献者被考虑并纳入欧米茄Cen的进化图。

英文摘要:

Abundance ratios of carbon, nitrogen and strontium relative to iron, calculated using spectrum synthesis techniques, are given for a sample of main sequence and turnoff stars that belong to the globular cluster omega Centauri. The variations of carbon, nitrogen and/or strontium show several different abundance patterns as a function of [Fe/H]. The source of the enhancements/depletions in carbon, nitrogen and/or strontium may be enrichment from asymptotic giant branch stars of low (1--3 solar masses) and intermediate (3--8 solar masses) mass. Massive rotating stars which produce excess nitrogen without carbon and oxygen overabundances may also play a role. These abundances enable different contributors to be considered and incorporated into the evolutionary picture of omega Cen.
