A search for diffuse absorption bands in carbon-rich stars -- I. Barium and related stars
2003
The results of a search for interstellar and circumstellar absorption lines in high-resolution optical spectra of seven late-type stars are presented. All these stars are single-lined spectroscopic binaries with unseen companions, presumably white dwarfs. Some residual material indicative of recent mass transfer from an asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star might still be associated with the systems. Peculiar energy distribution and the sodium D 1 and D 2 lines give direct evidence about the material in the line of sight in some cases. Absorption features of simple carbon-bearing molecules (C 2 , CN) have been detected in most of the examined stars, confirming a carbon-rich nature of the corre…
A detailed spectroscopy of the carbon-rich star BD +57° 2161
2005
An LTE abundance analysis based on high-resolution spectra is presented for the carbon-rich star BD +57° 2161, whose evolutionary status is unknown. With [C/Fe] = +0.4 dex and a mean s-process overabundance of [s/Fe] ≃ +1.5 dex the peculiar atmospheric composition of BD +57° 2161 is confirmed. The 12 C/ 13 C abundance ratio was found to be about 10. The mild iron deficiency, [Fe/H] = -0.2, supports the idea that BD +57° 2161 could be an old-disk-population object. Radial-velocity measurements confirm the binary nature of the star. Therefore the peculiar chemical composition could be due to the mass transfer from the secondary - AGB star in the past. Orbital parameters are estimated for anot…
