Parent Stars of Extrasolar Planets V: HD75289

Abstract

The results of a new spectroscopic analysis of HD75289, recently reported to harbor a Jovian-mass planet, are presented. From high-resolution, high-S/N ratio spectra, we derive [Fe/H] = +0.28 +/- 0.05 for this star, in agreement with the spectroscopic study of Gratton et al., published 10 years ago. In addition, we present a re-analysis of the spectra of Upsilon And and Tau Boo; our new parameters for these two stars are now in better agreement with photometrically-derived values and with the recent spectroscopic analyses of Fuhrmann, et al. We also report on extended abundance analyses of 14 Her, HD187123, HD210277, and Rho Cnc. If we include the recent spectroscopic analyses of HD217107 by Randich et al. and Sadakane et al., who both reported [Fe/H] ~ +0.30 for this star, we can state that all the "hot-Jupiter" systems studied to date have metal-rich parent stars. We find that the mean [C/Fe] and [Na/Fe] values among the stars-with-planets sample are smaller than the corresponding quantities among field stars of the same [Fe/H].
