Analysis of 26 barium stars. II. Contributions of s-, r-, and p-processes in the production of heavy elements
Context: .Barium stars show enhanced abundances for the slow neutroncapture (s-process) heavy elements, so they are suitable objects forstudying s-process elements. Aims: .The aim of this work is toquantify the contributions of the s-, r-, and p-processes for the totalabundance of heavy elements from abundances derived for a sample of 26barium stars. The abundance ratios between these processes and neutronexposures were studied. Methods: .The abundances of the samplestars were compared to those of normal stars, thus identifying thefraction relative to the main component of the s-process. Results:.The fittings of the σ N curves (neutron-capture cross-sectiontimes abundance, plotted against atomic mass number) for the samplestars suggest that the material from the companion asymptotic giantbranch star had approximately the solar isotopic composition as concernsfractions of abundances relative to the s-process main component. Theabundance ratios of heavy elements, hs, ls, and s and the computedneutron exposure are similar to those of post-AGB stars. For some samplestars, an exponential neutron exposure fits the observed data well,whereas a single neutron exposure provides a better fit for others. Conclusions: .The comparison of barium and AGB stars supports thehypothesis of binarity for the barium star formation. Abundances ofr-elements that are part of the s-process path in barium stars areusually higher than those in normal stars, so barium stars also seemedto be enriched in r-elements, although to a lower degree thans-elements. No dependence on luminosity classes was found in theabundance-ratio behaviour among the dwarfs and giants of the sample ofbarium stars.

Analysis of 26 barium stars. I. Abundances
Context: .We present a detailed analysis of 26 barium stars, includingdwarf barium stars, providing their atmospheric parameters (T_eff, logg, [Fe/H], v_t), and elemental abundances. Aims: .We aim atderiving gravities and luminosity classes of the sample stars, inparticular to confirm the existence of dwarf barium stars. Accurateabundances of chemical elements were derived. We present the abundanceratios between nucleosynthetic processes, by using Eu and Ba asrepresentatives of the r- and s-processes. Methods:.High-resolution spectra were obtained with the FEROS spectrograph atthe ESO-1.52 m Telescope, along with photometric data with Fotrap at theZeiss telescope at the LNA. The atmospheric parameters were derived inan iterative way, with temperatures obtained from colour-temperaturecalibrations. The abundances were derived using spectrum synthesis forLi, Na, Al, α-, iron-peak, s-, and r-element atomic lines, and forC and N molecular lines. Results: .Atmospheric parameters in therange 4300 < T_eff < 6500, -1.2 < [Fe/H] < 0.0, and 1.4≤ log g < 4.6 were derived, confirming that our sample containsgiants, subgiants, and dwarfs. The abundance results obtained for Li,Al, Na, α-, and iron-peak elements for the sample stars show thatthey are compatible with the values found in the literature for normaldisk stars in the same range of metallicities. Enhancements of C, N, andheavy elements relative to Fe, that characterise barium stars, werederived and showed that [X/Ba] vs. [Ba/H] and [X/Ba] vs. [Fe/H] presentdifferent behaviour as compared to [X/Eu] vs. [Eu/H] and [X/Eu] vs.[Fe/H], reflecting the different nucleosynthetic sites for the s- andr-processes.

Effective temperature scale and bolometric corrections from 2MASS photometry
We present a method to determine effective temperatures, angularsemi-diameters and bolometric corrections for population I and II FGKtype stars based on V and 2MASS IR photometry. Accurate calibration isaccomplished by using a sample of solar analogues, whose averagetemperature is assumed to be equal to the solar effective temperature of5777 K. By taking into account all possible sources of error we estimateassociated uncertainties to better than 1% in effective temperature andin the range 1.0-2.5% in angular semi-diameter for unreddened stars.Comparison of our new temperatures with other determinations extractedfrom the literature indicates, in general, remarkably good agreement.These results suggest that the effective temperaure scale of FGK starsis currently established with an accuracy better than 0.5%-1%. Theapplication of the method to a sample of 10 999 dwarfs in the Hipparcoscatalogue allows us to define temperature and bolometric correction (Kband) calibrations as a function of (V-K), [m/H] and log g. Bolometriccorrections in the V and K bands as a function of T_eff, [m/H] and log gare also given. We provide effective temperatures, angularsemi-diameters, radii and bolometric corrections in the V and K bandsfor the 10 999 FGK stars in our sample with the correspondinguncertainties.

Statistical Constraints for Astrometric Binaries with Nonlinear Motion
Useful constraints on the orbits and mass ratios of astrometric binariesin the Hipparcos catalog are derived from the measured proper motiondifferences of Hipparcos and Tycho-2 (Δμ), accelerations ofproper motions (μ˙), and second derivatives of proper motions(μ̈). It is shown how, in some cases, statistical bounds can beestimated for the masses of the secondary components. Two catalogs ofastrometric binaries are generated, one of binaries with significantproper motion differences and the other of binaries with significantaccelerations of their proper motions. Mathematical relations betweenthe astrometric observables Δμ, μ˙, and μ̈ andthe orbital elements are derived in the appendices. We find a remarkabledifference between the distribution of spectral types of stars withlarge accelerations but small proper motion differences and that ofstars with large proper motion differences but insignificantaccelerations. The spectral type distribution for the former sample ofbinaries is the same as the general distribution of all stars in theHipparcos catalog, whereas the latter sample is clearly dominated bysolar-type stars, with an obvious dearth of blue stars. We point outthat the latter set includes mostly binaries with long periods (longerthan about 6 yr).

The Geneva-Copenhagen survey of the Solar neighbourhood. Ages, metallicities, and kinematic properties of ˜14 000 F and G dwarfs
We present and discuss new determinations of metallicity, rotation, age,kinematics, and Galactic orbits for a complete, magnitude-limited, andkinematically unbiased sample of 16 682 nearby F and G dwarf stars. Our˜63 000 new, accurate radial-velocity observations for nearly 13 500stars allow identification of most of the binary stars in the sampleand, together with published uvbyβ photometry, Hipparcosparallaxes, Tycho-2 proper motions, and a few earlier radial velocities,complete the kinematic information for 14 139 stars. These high-qualityvelocity data are supplemented by effective temperatures andmetallicities newly derived from recent and/or revised calibrations. Theremaining stars either lack Hipparcos data or have fast rotation. Amajor effort has been devoted to the determination of new isochrone agesfor all stars for which this is possible. Particular attention has beengiven to a realistic treatment of statistical biases and errorestimates, as standard techniques tend to underestimate these effectsand introduce spurious features in the age distributions. Our ages agreewell with those by Edvardsson et al. (\cite{edv93}), despite severalastrophysical and computational improvements since then. We demonstrate,however, how strong observational and theoretical biases cause thedistribution of the observed ages to be very different from that of thetrue age distribution of the sample. Among the many basic relations ofthe Galactic disk that can be reinvestigated from the data presentedhere, we revisit the metallicity distribution of the G dwarfs and theage-metallicity, age-velocity, and metallicity-velocity relations of theSolar neighbourhood. Our first results confirm the lack of metal-poor Gdwarfs relative to closed-box model predictions (the ``G dwarfproblem''), the existence of radial metallicity gradients in the disk,the small change in mean metallicity of the thin disk since itsformation and the substantial scatter in metallicity at all ages, andthe continuing kinematic heating of the thin disk with an efficiencyconsistent with that expected for a combination of spiral arms and giantmolecular clouds. Distinct features in the distribution of the Vcomponent of the space motion are extended in age and metallicity,corresponding to the effects of stochastic spiral waves rather thanclassical moving groups, and may complicate the identification ofthick-disk stars from kinematic criteria. More advanced analyses of thisrich material will require careful simulations of the selection criteriafor the sample and the distribution of observational errors.Based on observations made with the Danish 1.5-m telescope at ESO, LaSilla, Chile, and with the Swiss 1-m telescope at Observatoire deHaute-Provence, France.Complete Tables 1 and 2 are only available in electronic form at the CDSvia anonymous ftp to cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr (130.79.128.5) or viahttp://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/cgi-bin/qcat?J/A+A/418/989

HIPPARCOS age-metallicity relation of the solar neighbourhood disc stars
We derive age-metallicity relations (AMRs) and orbital parameters forthe 1658 solar neighbourhood stars to which accurate distances aremeasured by the HIPPARCOS satellite. The sample stars comprise 1382 thindisc stars, 229 thick disc stars, and 47 halo stars according to theirorbital parameters. We find a considerable scatter for thin disc AMRalong the one-zone Galactic chemical evolution (GCE) model. Orbits andmetallicities of thin disc stars show now clear relation each other. Thescatter along the AMR exists even if the stars with the same orbits areselected. We examine simple extension of one-zone GCE models whichaccount for inhomogeneity in the effective yield and inhomogeneous starformation rate in the Galaxy. Both extensions of the one-zone GCE modelcannot account for the scatter in age - [Fe/H] - [Ca/Fe] relationsimultaneously. We conclude, therefore, that the scatter along the thindisc AMR is an essential feature in the formation and evolution of theGalaxy. The AMR for thick disc stars shows that the star formationterminated 8 Gyr ago in the thick disc. As already reported by Grattonet al. (\cite{Gratton_et.al.2000}) and Prochaska et al.(\cite{Prochaska_et.al.2000}), thick disc stars are more Ca-rich thanthin disc stars with the same [Fe/H]. We find that thick disc stars showa vertical abundance gradient. These three facts, the AMR, verticalgradient, and [Ca/Fe]-[Fe/H] relation, support monolithic collapseand/or accretion of satellite dwarf galaxies as likely thick discformation scenarios.

Non-LTE Abundances and Consequences for the Evolution of the α-Elements in the Galaxy
Abundances of α-elements such as Ca and Mg in disk and halo starsare usually derived from equivalent width lines measured onhigh-resolution spectra and assuming local thermodynamic equilibrium(LTE). In this paper, we present non-LTE differential abundances derivedby computing the statistical equilibrium of Ca I and Mg I atoms, usinghigh-resolution equivalent widths available in the literature for 252dwarf to subgiant stars. These non-LTE abundances, combined with recentdetermination of non-LTE abundances of iron, seem to remove thedispersion of the [Ca/Fe] and [Mg/Fe] ratios in the galactic halo anddisk phases, revealing new and surprising structures. These results haveimportant consequences for chemical evolution models of the Galaxy. Inaddition, non-LTE abundance ratios for stars belonging to the M92cluster apparently have the same behavior. More high-resolutionobservations, mainly of globular clusters, are urgently needed toconfirm our results.

Stellar Iron Abundances: Non-LTE Effects
We report new statistical equilibrium calculations for Fe I and Fe II inthe atmosphere of late-type stars. We used atomic models for Fe I and FeII having, respectively, 256 and 190 levels, as well as 2117 and 3443radiative transitions. Photoionization cross sections are from the IronProject. These atomic models were used to investigate non-LTE (NLTE)effects in iron abundances of late-type stars with different atmosphericparameters. We found that most Fe I lines in metal-poor stars are formedin conditions far from LTE. We derived metallicity corrections of about0.3 dex with respect to LTE values for the case of stars with[Fe/H]~-3.0. Fe II is found not to be affected by significant NLTEeffects. The main NLTE effect invoked in the case of Fe I isoverionization by ultraviolet radiation; thus classical ionizationequilibrium is far from being satisfied. An important consequence isthat surface gravities derived by LTE analysis are in error and shouldbe corrected before final abundance corrections. This apparently solvesthe observed discrepancy between spectroscopic surface gravities derivedby LTE analyses and those derived from Hipparcos parallaxes. A table ofNLTE [Fe/H] and log g values for a sample of metal-poor late-type starsis given.

Barium stars, galactic populations and evolution.
In this paper HIPPARCOS astrometric and kinematical data together withradial velocities from other sources are used to calibrate bothluminosity and kinematics parameters of Ba stars and to classify them.We confirm the results of our previous paper (where we used data fromthe HIPPARCOS Input Catalogue), and show that Ba stars are aninhomogeneous group. Five distinct classes have been found i.e. somehalo stars and four groups belonging to disk population: roughlysuper-giants, two groups of giants (one on the giant branch, the otherat the clump location) and dwarfs, with a few subgiants mixed with them.The confirmed or suspected duplicity, the variability and the range ofknown orbital periods found in each group give coherent resultssupporting the scenario for Ba stars that are not too highly massivebinary stars in any evolutionary stages but that all were previouslyenriched with Ba from a more evolved companion. The presence in thesample of a certain number of ``false'' Ba stars is confirmed. Theestimates of age and mass are compatible with models for stars with astrong Ba anomaly. The mild Ba stars with an estimated mass higher than3Msun_ may be either stars Ba enriched by themselves or``true'' Ba stars, which imposes new constraints on models.

The nature of the F STR λ4077 stars. V. Spectroscopic data
We report first high-resolution spectroscopic observations of 17 starsclassified F str λ4077 by Bidelman. They are compared todifferent types of stars, which have been observed at the same time,including 3 CH subgiants, 3 barium stars, 5 λ Bootis stars, Ap/Amstars, and normal main-sequence stars. The detailed equivalent widthsand abundances are given for all measured spectral lines, as well as themean abundance per species for each object. These data and theirsignificance are described in detail and discussed in an articlepublished in the Main Journal.

The nature of the F STR lambda 4077 stars. 3: Spectroscopy of the barium dwarfs and other CP stars
The abundances of C, O, Al, Ca, iron-peak and s-process elements havebeen derived from high-resolution spectra for a sample of starsclassified as F str lambda 4077 by Bidelman. Among the 20 starsmentioned by Bidelman, we have discovered 8 barium dwarfs (or CHsubgiants, according to Bond's terminology), while a 9th star, HD182274, was already known as a CH subgiant. In addition, we haveanalyzed three barium stars taken from the list of Lu et al. (1983)which are probably dwarfs rather than giants, and three CH subgiants.The other 11 F str lambda 4077 stars resemble either the delta Delphinistars, since their iron abundance is enhanced while Ca is normal, or areprobably spectrum composites. A few Am, Ap, lambda Bootis and normalstars have been analyzed for comparison. In particular, we have includedthree lambda Boo candidates, selected from their photometric properties,and their iron deficiency is confirmed. The spectroscopic, photometricand statistical evidences concerning the Ba dwarfs, support the ideathat these stars may be the main sequence counterparts, and possibly theprogenitors of the Ba giants. The C/O ratio varies in these stars fromnormal values to a maximum of 1.5, but mostly within 0.6 and 1.2. Someof these objects may therefore be considered, in this sense, as carbonstars. On the other hand, the abundances of carbon and s-processelements relative to iron are inversely correlated with metallicity, andmay even exceed significantly those of typical, solar-metallicity carbonstars. Metal-deficient C stars must therefore have (C/Fe) greater thanor approximately equal to 1 and (s/Fe) greater than or approximatelyequal to 1.5 as soon as (Fe/H) less than or approximately equal to -1.The neutron exposure is shown to increase when the metallicitydecreases, which is compatible with the C-13 (alpha, n) O-16 neutronsource, but not with the Ne-22 (alpha, n) Mg-25 one. The evolutionarystate (within the main sequence) of the Ba dwarfs, is rediscussed inrelation with their photometric and spectroscopic surface gravity, butit remains unclear.

The nature of the F STR 4077-A stars. IV - Search for white dwarfs around barium dwarfs
The energy distribution of three stars classified as F str 4077-A byBidelman has been observed in the ultraviolet with the IUE satellite.Although the stars examined have the same kind of abundance anomalies asthe Ba giants and Bond's CH subgiants (i.e. an overabundance ofs-process elements), no UV excess related with the presence of theexpected white dwarf companion was found. The implications for themass-transfer scenario are discussed.

The nature of the F STR 4077-A stars. II - Frequency, kinematics, metallicity, binarity and rotational velocities
Fundamental characteristics of the F str 4077-A stars are investigated.Their frequency in the solar neighborhood is estimated at about 1.4percent of all main-sequence F stars. The space velocities areconsistent with Population I membership, with the exception of oneobject (in a sample of 17) whose velocity is above 100 km/s. The binaryfrequency is higher than normal, and the rotational velocities arenormal for the cooler stars but rather low for the hotter ones. Overallmetallicity, deduced from photometric and CORAVEL data, suggests adivision of these stars into two groups: metal-rich objects (generallythe hotter ones), which may resemble the Am or Ap stars, and slightlymetal-weak objects (generally the cooler ones), which may be linked withthe Ba II giants or the CH subgiants.

A survey of F-type stars
The results of a spectroscopic survey of 350 F-type stars at adispersion of 80 A/mm are presented. Twenty-two percent of the starsshow degree of metal line weakening; this result parallels that ofphotometric investigations in the uvby Beta system. The line weakeningparameter introduced correlates strongly with photometric indices andwith abundance anomalies established by theoreticians of stellaratmospheres. The classification can thus be used to easily select starswith underabundances stronger than a factor four with respect to thesun.

The nature of the F STR lambda 4077 stars
Geneva photometry of seven stars classified F str 4077-A stars byBidelman (1981) is presented. Published uvby-beta measurements of fiveadditional stars of this type are used, as well to look for a possiblelink with the classical Am or Ap stars. It is shown that these starsexhibit a whole range of metallicities, the latter being correlated witheffective temperature. The existing proper motions point to a PopulationI membership, although one star seems to have a rather high velocity. Itis suggested that this new type of peculiarity may be interpreted in theframework of the diffusion theory and that at least some F str 4077-Astars may represent an intermediate stage between Am and Lambda Bootisstars, although they are generally cooler.

Estimation of spectral classifications for bright northern stars with interesting Stromgren indices
The purpose of this investigation is to provide spectroscopic observerswith finding lists of potentially interesting objects. From anunpublished UVBY catalogue of 7026 northern stars (mostly brighter than8.3m) 1094 objects with interesting combinations of UVBY indices havebeen selected. Most stars with post-HD classifications have beenexcluded, as well as late F dwarfs belonging to the intermediatepopulation II. For the 792 remaining stars estimated spectralclassifications are given. The techniques and experience from a previouspaper dealing with southern stars have been utilized here. Among thepredicted spectral classifications are 40 OB stars; 262 Ap, Am, or Fmstars; 16 supergiants of types A to G; 110 bright giants of types A to K(class II); 156 double stars or objects with composite spectra; 26 lateF dwarfs; 91 weak-lined dwarf and giant stars of types F to K, includingearly F-type population II field blue stragglers; and a few possiblefield horizontal branch stars, lambda Bootis-type stars, and late-typehalo giants.
