摘要:

通过测量5颗冷的北冕座R星的16 O/18 O比值,研究了它们与缺氢碳星的关系。16 O/18 O比值是通过高分辨率(R= 50,000)K带光谱的光谱合成得到的。还给出了16 O/17 O和14 N/15 N比值以及Na和S丰度(如果可能)的下限。在我们的样本中,RCB星的18 O通常比HdC星少-导出的16 O/18 O比值从3到20不等。唯一的例外是RCB星WX CrA,它似乎是一颗16 O/18 O =0.3的类HdC星。我们的结果较高的16 O/18 O比的RCB星必须占的HdC和RCB星的形成和演化的理论。我们推测,后期挖掘的产物,主要是12 C和16 O,可能会转换一个富18 O的HdC星到一个18 O贫RCB星作为H-缺乏的恒星开始其最终的演变从一个冷的超巨星的顶部的白矮星冷却轨道。

英文摘要:

We investigate the relationship between R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars and hydrogen-deficient carbon (HdC) stars by measuring precise 16O/18O ratios for five cool RCB stars. The 16O/18O ratios are derived by spectrum synthesis from high-resolution (R=50,000) K-band spectra. Lower limits to the 16O/17O and 14N/15}N ratios as well as Na and S abundances (when possible) are also given. RCB stars in our sample generally display less 18O than HdC stars - the derived 16O/18O ratios range from 3 to 20. The only exception is the RCB star WX CrA, which seems to be a HdC-like star with 16O/18O=0.3. Our result of a higher 16O/18O ratio for the RCB stars must be accounted for by a theory of the formation and evolution of HdC and RCB stars. We speculate that a late dredge-up of products of He-burning, principally 12C and 16O, may convert a 18O-rich HdC star into a 18O-poor RCB star as the H-deficient star begins its final evolution from a cool supergiant to the top of the white dwarf cooling track.
