摘要:

目的:我们测试的演化模型的预测混合的大质量恒星从基本的角度来看,HOC循环的产品。理论上的C:N:O丰度比和氦的积累的相对变化与观测结果进行了比较。方法:介绍了一个经过充分研究的银河系大质量恒星的样本。使用改进的NLTE线形成和综合分析策略仔细分析高质量的光谱。结果是在现有文献数据的背景下。结果如下:首次从主序星到超巨星的自洽分析中发现了观测到的N/C与N/O比值和氦积累的紧密趋势。的催化性质的hoc周期的定量确认,但需要进一步的调查,以获得一个完全一致的图片。我们的观测结果支持强混合的情况,例如,通过考虑磁场的演化模型或通过在许多超巨星的情况下经历了第一次挖掘的模型所预测的。

英文摘要:

Aims: We test predictions of evolution models on mixing of CNO-cycled products in massive stars from a fundamental perspective. Relative changes within the theoretical C:N:O abundance ratios and the buildup of helium are compared with observational results. Methods: A sample of well-studied Galactic massive stars is presented. High-quality optical spectra are carefully analysed using improved NLTE line-formation and comprehensive analysis strategies. The results are put in the context of the existing literature data. Results: A tight trend in the observed N/C vs. N/O ratios and the buildup of helium is found from the self-consistent analysis of main-sequence to supergiant stars for the first time. The catalytic nature of the CNO-cycles is confirmed quantitatively, though further investigations are required to derive a fully consistent picture. Our observational results support the case of strong mixing, as predicted e.g. by evolution models that consider magnetic fields or by models that have gone through the first dredge-up in the case of many supergiants.
