Abstract

Some normal A-type main sequence stars appear to have surface abundances like those of metallic lined Am-type stars. This may be because we have not learned how to complete this separation. In this study, we investigate normal and metallic lined A stars to understand the details of their optical region abundances via statistical techniques for 13 elements (C, O, Mg, Si, Ca, Sc, Ti, Cr, Fe, Ni, Sr, Y, Ba) abundances determined by high resolution spectral data from DAO (Dominion Astrophysical Observatory) by Yüce and Adelman (2014). With these data, correlation coefficients of 12 elements were calculated against their [Fe/H] abundances. As a result of regression analysis, the relationship of 12 elements with [Fe/H] abundance was determined. The results revealed that normal A-type stars differ from Am-type stars in terms of [Fe/H] abundance.

Abstract

Bazı normal A-tipi anakol yıldızlarının, metal çizgili Am-tipi yıldızlarına benzer yüzey bolluğuna sahip olduğu görülmektedir. Bunun nedeni bu ayrımı nasıl tamamlayacağımıza dair kesinleşmemiz bilgilerimizin olmaması olabilir. Bu çalışmada, Yüce ve Adelman (2014) tarafından DAO'dan (Dominion Astrophysical Observatory, Kanada) alınan yüksek çözünürlüklü spektral verilerle belirlenen 13 element bolluğu için istatistiksel tekniklerle optik bölge bolluklarının ayrıntılarını anlamak için normal ve metalik çizgili A yıldızlarını araştırıyoruz. Bu verilerle [Fe/H] bolluğuna karşı 12 elementin korelasyon katsayıları hesaplanmıştır. Regresyon analizi sonucunda 12 elementin [Fe/H] bolluğu ile ilişkisi belirlendi. Sonuçlar, normal A-tipi yıldızların [Fe/H] bolluğu açısından Am-tipi yıldızlardan farklı olduğunu ortaya koydu.
