We report on a detailed abundance study of the fairly bright slow rotators HD 30085 (A0 IV), HD 30963 (B9 III) and HD 174567 (A0 V), hitherto reported as normal stars and the sharp-lined chi Lupi A (B9 IV HgMn). In the spectra of HD 30085, HD 30963, the Hg II line at 3984 A line is conspicuous and numerous lines of silicon, manganese, chromium, titanium, iron, strontium, yttrium and zirconium appear to be strong absorbers. A comparison of the mean spectra of HD 30085 and HD 30963 with a grid of synthetic spectra for selected unblended lines having reliable updated atomic data reveals large overabundances of phosphorus, titanium, chromium, manganese, strontium, yttrium, and zirconium, barium, platinum and mercury and underabundances of helium, magnesium, scandium, nickel. The surface abundances of chi Lupi A have been rederived on the same effective temperature scale and using the same atomic data for consistency and comparison for HD 30085 and HD 30963. For HD 174567, milder deficiencies and excesses are found. The abundances of sodium, magnesium and calcium have been corrected for NLTE effects. The effective temperatures, surface gravities, low projected rotational velocities and the peculiar abundance patterns of HD 30085 and HD 30963 show that these stars are 2 new HgMn stars and should be reclassified as such. HD 174567 is most likely a new marginally Chemically Peculiar star. A list of the identifications of lines absorbing more than 2% in the spectrum of HD 30085 is also provided.
We present elemental abundance results from high resolution spectral analysis of three nitrogen-enhanced barium stars. The analysis is based on spectra obtained with the FEROS attached to 1.52m telescope at ESO, Chile. The spectral resolution is R~48
We report on the analysis of high-precision space-based photometry of the roAp (rapidly oscillating Ap) stars HD 9289, HD 99563, and HD134214. All three stars were observed by the MOST satellite for more than 25 days, allowing unprecedented views of
The SDSS III APOGEE survey recently identified two new $sigma$ Ori E type candidates, HD 345439 and HD 23478, which are a rare subset of rapidly rotating massive stars whose large (kGauss) magnetic fields confine circumstellar material around these s
The detection of pulsational frequencies in stellar photometry is required as input for asteroseismological modelling. The second short run (SRa02) of the CoRoT mission has provided photometric data of unprecedented quality and time-coverage for a nu
We report the discovery of long-period radial velocity (RV) variations in six intermediate-mass K-giant stars using precise RV measurements. These discoveries are part of the Search for Exoplanets around Northern Circumpolar Stars (SENS) survey being
