Abundances of {phi} Her

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Observations of the mercury-manganese star phi Her with the Navy Prototype Optical Interferometer (NPOI) conclusively reveal the previously unseen companion in this single-lined binary system.

Description

The NPOI data were used to predict a spectral type of A8 V for the secondary star phi Her B. This prediction was subsequently confirmed by spectroscopic observations obtained at the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory. phi Her B is rotating at 50+/-3km/s, in contrast to the 8 km/s lines of phi Her A. Recognizing the lines from the secondary permits one to separate them from those of the primary.

The abundance analysis of phi Her A shows an abundance pattern similar to those of other HgMn stars, with Al being very under-abundant and Sc, Cr, Mn, Zn, Ga, Sr, Y, Zr, Ba, Ce, and Hg being very overabundant.
