Abstract
As a further step in our Lithium project we present results of abundance determination of some elements in the roAp star HD 60435. Possible NLTE effects were considered. Equivalent widths of spectral lines vary with rotational phase which suggests nonuniform distribution of chemical elements over the stars' surface. Large abundance differences derived from various ions of some rare earth elements indicate their possible vertical stratification. Two spots of enhanced lithium abundance were distinguished at the magnetic poles on HD 60435 and their parameters derived. The rotational axis inclination $i=133^\circ$ or $47^\circ$ and surface magnetic field $H_{\rm s}=3 \pm 1$ kG were determined for the first time for HD 60435. The results are compared with HD 83368, the other star with lines of lithium remarkably variable in intensity and wavelength.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
