Discovery of lambda Boo stars in open clusters
C. Saffe, J. Alacoria, A. Alejo +7
The origin of lambda Boo stars is currently unknown. After several efforts by many authors, no bona fide lambda Boo stars have been confirmed as members of open clusters. Their det…
Searching for lambda Boo stars in binary systems
J. Alacoria, C. Saffe, A. Collado +7
Our goal is to find new candidate lambda Boo stars that belong to binary systems. A detailed abundance determination of some candidates could confirm their true lambda Boo nature,…
No Maunder Minimum phase in HD 4915
M. Flores-Trivigno, A. P. Buccino, E. González +8
The long-term solar magnetic activity and its cyclical behaviour, which is maintained by a dynamo mechanism, are both still challenging for the astrophysics. In particular, an atyp…
Disentangling the origin of chemical differences using GHOST
C. Saffe, P. Miquelarena, J. Alacoria +8
Aims. We explore different scenarios to explain the chemical difference found in the remarkable giant-giant binary system HD 138202 + CD-30 12303. For the first time, we suggest ho…
Are Am stars and hot-Jupiter planets related?
C. Saffe, J. Alacoria, P. Miquelarena +8
Am stars are often components of short-period binary systems, where tidal interactions would result in low rotational velocities and help to develop the chemical peculiarities obse…
Testing the accretion scenario of lambda Boo stars
J. Alacoria, C. Saffe, M. Jaque Arancibia +5
Our aim is to test the accretion scenario of lambda Boo stars. This model predicts that a binary system with two early-type stars passing through a diffuse cloud should both displa…
Chemical analysis of early-type stars with planets
C. Saffe, P. Miquelarena, J. Alacoria +6
Aims. To explore the chemical pattern of early-type stars with planets, searching for a possible signature of planet formation. In particular, we study a likely relation between th…
KELT-17: a chemically peculiar Am star and a hot-Jupiter planet
C. Saffe, P. Miquelarena, J. Alacoria +6
Context. The detection of planets orbiting chemically peculiar stars is very scarcely known in the literature. Aims. To determine the detailed chemical composition of the remarkabl…
High-precision analysis of binary stars with planets. I. Searching for condensation temperature trends in the HD 106515 system
C. Saffe, E. Jofre, P. Miquelarena +4
We explore the probable chemical signature of planet formation in the remarkable binary system HD 106515. The A star hosts a massive long-period planet with 9 MJup detected by radi…
Using non-solar-scaled opacities to derive stellar parameters. Toward high-precision parameters and abundances
C. Saffe, M. Flores, P. Miquelarena +5
We implemented non-solar-scaled opacities in a simultaneous derivation of fundamental parameters and abundances. We carried out a high-precision stellar parameters and abundance de…
A new massive double-lined spectroscopic binary system: The Wolf-Rayet star WR 68a
A. Collado, R. Gamen, R. H. Barbá +1
Double-lined spectroscopic binary systems, containing a Wolf-Rayet and a massive O-type star, are key objects for the study of massive star evolution because these kinds of systems…
The new Wolf-Rayet binary system WR62a
A. Collado, R. Gamen, R. H. Barbá
Context. A significant number of the Wolf-Rayet stars seem to be binary or multiple systems, but the nature of many of them is still unknown. Dedicated monitoring of WR stars favou…
