Abstract
In this paper we present the first quantitative abundance analysis of the SB2 system with HgMn and Hg components HD 191110. Time-resolved ( $R=14\,000$) spectroscopic observations of this system have been obtained during September and October 2002 at the Catania Astrophysical Observatory. Combining these observations with spectra ( $R = 50\,000$-110 000) taken from the CFHT archive, we refined the orbital period of this system ( $P=9.34661 \pm 0.00002$ d) and then we recalculated the fundamental parameters characterizing its orbit. From the fit of the H $_\beta$ profiles, obtained at different orbital phases, we determined the effective temperatures and surface gravities of each component and the light ratio: $T_{\rm eff}^A=11\,000$ K, $\log g^A=3.60$, $T_{\rm eff}^B= 10\,700$ K, $\log g^B=3.90$, $L_{\rm A}/L_{\rm B}=1.20$. Regarding the chemical composition, both components have solar abundances of sulfur, titanium and iron; magnesium and silicon are slightly underabundant; platinum and yttrium are overabundant. Manganese lines have been detected only in the spectrum of the primary. As to rare-earths, two lines of NdIII have been identified in the secondary's spectrum. Other lines we identified in our spectra belong to PII, CrII, NiII, SrII, ZrII and AuII. We also discuss the isotopic structure of the HgII $\lambda$3983.9 Å line.

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.
