摘要:

目标。我们的目标是双重的。首先,我们的目标是评估的鲁棒性和准确性的恒星参数和详细的元素丰度,可以从高分辨率的光谱观测微透镜矮和亚巨星。然后,我们的目标是使用微透镜矮星和亚巨星来研究银河系隆起的丰度结构和化学演化。[简略]方法。我们提出了一个详细的元素丰度分析OGLE-2008-BLG-209 S,一个新的微透镜事件的源星向隆起,我们获得了高分辨率的光谱与麦哲伦粘土望远镜上的MIKE摄谱仪。我们对OGLE-2008-BLG-209 S进行了四种不同的分析。我们还用同样的方法重新分析了之前的三颗微透镜矮星OGLE-2006-BLG-265 S,MOA-2006-BLG-099 S和OGLE-2007-BLG-349 S。这个同质的数据集虽然很小,但可以直接比较不同的恒星星族。结果我们发现OGLE-2008-BLG-209 S是一颗亚巨星,其金属丰度为[Fe/H] ~-0.33。它具有类似于在相同金属丰度的膨胀巨星中发现的[α/Fe]增强,以及在相同金属丰度的附近厚盘星中发现的增强。相比之下,前三颗微透镜矮星的金属丰度非常高,[Fe/H]>+0.4,丰度比更像太阳,即[alpha/Fe]~0。[α/Fe]比值随[Fe/H]的降低是中低质量恒星富集的典型特征。此外,我们发现,结果的四个凸出的恒星,结合结果的巨大恒星的研究在凸出,似乎有利于一个长期的形成方案的凸出。

英文摘要:

AIMS. Our aims are twofold. First we aim to evaluate the robustness and accuracy of stellar parameters and detailed elemental abundances that can be derived from high-resolution spectroscopic observations of microlensed dwarf and subgiant stars. We then aim to use microlensed dwarf and subgiant stars to investigate the abundance structure and chemical evolution of the Milky Way Bulge. [ABRIDGED] METHODS. We present a detailed elemental abundance analysis of OGLE-2008-BLG-209S, the source star of a new microlensing event towards the Bulge, for which we obtained a high-resolution spectrum with the MIKE spectrograph on the Magellan Clay telescope. We have performed four different analyses of OGLE-2008-BLG-209S. [ABRIDGED] We have also re-analysed three previous microlensed dwarf stars OGLE-2006-BLG-265S, MOA-2006-BLG-099S, and OGLE-2007-BLG-349S with the same method. This homogeneous data set, although small, enables a direct comparison between the different stellar populations. RESULTS. We find that OGLE-2008-BLG-209S is a subgiant star that has a metallicity of [Fe/H] ~-0.33. It possesses [alpha/Fe] enhancements similar to what is found for Bulge giant stars at the same metallicity, and what also is found for nearby thick disc stars at the same metallicity. In contrast, the previous three microlensing dwarf stars have very high metallicities, [Fe/H]>+0.4, and more solar-like abundance ratios, i.e. [alpha/Fe]~0. The decrease in the [alpha/Fe] ratio with [Fe/H] is the typical signature of enrichment from low and intermediate mass stars. We furthermore find that the results for the four Bulge stars, in combination with results from studies of giant stars in the Bulge, seem to favour a secular formation scenario for the Bulge.
