Abundance analysis of the cool extreme helium star LSS 3378.

Abstract (from CDS):

Abundance analysis of the cool extreme helium (EHe) star LSS3378 is presented. The abundance analysis is done using local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) line formation and LTE model atmospheres constructed for EHe stars.

The atmosphere of LSS3378 shows evidence of H-burning, He-burning, and s-process nucleosynthesis. The derived abundances of iron peak and α-elements indicate the absence of selective fractionation or any other processes that can distort chemical composition of these elements. Hence, the Fe abundance [log ε(Fe) = 6.1] is adopted as an initial metallicity indicator. The measured abundances of LSS3378 are compared with those of R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars and with rest of the EHe stars as a group.
