The nature of Hen 3-1312: A post-AGB star in a binary system.

PEREIRA C.B.

Abstract (from CDS):

This work reports the low- and high-resolution spectroscopic diagnostic diagrams, radial velocity, stellar parameters and abundance analysis of the planetary nebula Hen 3-1312. The low- and high-resolution spectra reveal that Hen 3-1312 is in fact a very-low-excitation object, in a binary system with a supergiant as a cool central star. The analysis of the high-resolution spectrum shows the cool stellar component to have an effective temperature of Teff=6500±100K and a surface gravity of log g=0.8±0.2 corresponding to a spectral type of F(6-7)I. These parameters result in an estimated primary luminosity of 4100L☉, implying a distance of 4400pc which is in agreement with previous determinations. The abundance analysis reveals Hen 3-1312 to be a metal-poor object having [Fe/H]=-1.1. The mean abundances of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen are found to be solar, however the α-elements (Mg, Si and Ca) are underabundant relative to the Sun. The abundance profile of Hen 3-1312 is analyzed and compared with other classes of stars with similar atmospheric parameters.
