摘要:

我们对强r过程增强巨星HE 2327-5642进行了详细的丰度分析([Fe/H] =-2.78,[r/Fe] = +0.99)。恒星参数和元素丰度的确定是基于对高质量VLT/UVES光谱的分析。根据Fe I和Fe II以及Ca I和Ca II之间的NLTE电离平衡计算表面重力。准确的丰度,共40个元素和23个中子捕获元素超出Sr和Th。HE 2327-5642的重元素丰度模式与先前导出的其他强r过程增强星的丰度模式非常一致。从Ba到Hf范围内的元素与比例太阳能r过程模式非常匹配。对于HE 2327-5642中的第一个中子俘获峰元素Sr到Pd与太阳r过程之间的关系,由于后者的不确定性,无法得出确切的结论。在不同铕增强的晕星之间发现Sr/Eu丰度比有明显的区别。强r过程增强星的Sr/Eu丰度比较低,为-0.92+-0.13,而0 < [Eu/Fe] < 1和[Eu/Fe] < 0的星的Sr/Eu值分别大0.36和0.93 dex。根据观测到的钍和稀土元素丰度对,对HE 2327-5642进行放射性年代测定,根据高熵风计算得出的平均年龄为13.3 Gyr,使用太阳r残差计算得出的平均年龄为5.9 Gyr。根据我们的高分辨率光谱,HE 2327-5642被怀疑是径向速度可变的,覆盖约4.3年。

英文摘要:

We report on a detailed abundance analysis of the strongly r-process enhanced giant star, HE 2327-5642 ([Fe/H] = -2.78, [r/Fe] = +0.99). Determination of stellar parameters and element abundances was based on analysis of high-quality VLT/UVES spectra. The surface gravity was calculated from the NLTE ionization balance between Fe I and Fe II, and Ca I and Ca II. Accurate abundances for a total of 40 elements and for 23 neutron-capture elements beyond Sr and up to Th were determined. The heavy element abundance pattern of HE 2327-5642 is in excellent agreement with those previously derived for other strongly r-process enhanced stars. Elements in the range from Ba to Hf match the scaled Solar r-process pattern very well. No firm conclusion can be drawn with respect to a relationship between the fisrt neutron-capture peak elements, Sr to Pd, in HE 2327-5642 and the Solar r-process, due to the uncertainty of the latter. A clear distinction in Sr/Eu abundance ratios was found between the halo stars with different europium enhancement. The strongly r-process enhanced stars reveal a low Sr/Eu abundance ratio at [Sr/Eu] = -0.92+-0.13, while the stars with 0 < [Eu/Fe] < 1 and [Eu/Fe] < 0 have 0.36 dex and 0.93 dex larger Sr/Eu values, respectively. Radioactive dating for HE 2327-5642 with the observed thorium and rare-earth element abundance pairs results in an average age of 13.3 Gyr, when based on the high-entropy wind calculations, and 5.9 Gyr, when using the Solar r-residuals. HE 2327-5642 is suspected to be radial-velocity variable based on our high-resolution spectra, covering ~4.3 years.
