A Spectroscopic Search for λ Bootis and Other Peculiar A-Type Stars in Intermediate-Age Open Clusters
As part of our continuing search for peculiar A-type stars, especiallyλ Bootis stars, in open clusters of all ages, we have obtainedclassification spectra of 130 late B, A, and early F-type stars in 12intermediate-age open clusters, including NGC 1039, 2281, 2548, 6633,7039, 7063, 7092, and 7209, IC 4665, IC 4756, Stock 2, and Praesepe. Thespectra were obtained with resolutions of 1.8 and 3.6 Å on the 0.8m telescope of Appalachian State University and were classified on theMK system. Numerous classical Ap and Am stars were found among the 130,including two new Ap stars in NGC 7092. In addition, three emission-linestars and two candidate λ Bootis stars were found. Neither ofthese λ Bootis candidates turned out to be members of theirrespective clusters. Combined with 184 stars previously classified in 10other intermediate-age open clusters, also devoid of λ Bootisstars, a statistically significant null result is obtained. We discussthe implications of this null result for our understanding of theλ Bootis mechanism.
| Photoelectric search for CP2-stars in open clusters. V - NGC 6281, NGC 6405, IC 4665
130 stars in the medium age clusters NGC 6281, NGC 6405, and IC 4665were observed by photoelectric photometry in the Delta a-system(Maitzen, 1976) in order to detect CP2-peculiarity by the presence ofthe lambda 5200 depression feature. No CP2-star was found in IC 4665,one in NGC 6281, and 3 in NGC 6405. Star No. 77 of NGC 6405 exhibits thestrongest lambda 5200 depression ever measured by this type ofphotometry. The (very small) reddening correction of the a-values isdiscussed and found to agree well with previous papers of this series.
