Abundances of red giants in NGC752

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present detailed chemical compositions of 10 red giant star members of the Galactic (open) cluster NGC 752, derived from high-resolution (R~60000), high signal-to-noise (S/N>=140) spectra.

Description

We confirmed cluster memberships by measuring the stellar radial velocities, and by deriving model atmosphere parameters (Teff, logg, [Fe/H] and {xi}t) from equivalent widths of FeI, FeII, TiI, and TiII lines. The metallicity we obtained for NGC 752 ([Fe/H]=-0.02+/-0.05) is in good agreement with previous studies.

We derived abundances of alpha (Mg, Si, Ca), light odd-Z (Na, Al), Fe-group (Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn), n-capture (Y, La, Nd, Eu), and p-capture (Li, C, N, O) species for each star. Furthermore, we also derived abundances of the LiCNO p-capture element group and carbon isotopic ratios, using synthetic spectrum analyses of the LiI 6707{AA} resonance doublet, the [OI] line at 6300{AA}, the CH G-band features near 4311 and 4325{AA}, the C_2_ bandheads at 5160 and 563{AA}, and ^12,13^CN red system lines in the 7995-8040{AA} region.

By applying recent isochrones to NGC 752 photometry, and comparing the colour-magnitude diagram information to our Li abundances and 12C/13C ratios, we suggest that the 10 observed red giants can be separated into three first-ascent, six red-clump and one red horizontal branch star.
