Comparison with the Be abundances from selected results of the literature. In the left panel the abundances are shown as a function of T_eff and in the right panel as a function of mass. As in the previous figures, our results for IC 2391, IC 2602, and the Hyades are shown as open blue squares, open red circles, and green starred symbols, respectively. Abundances for additional Hyades stars collected from Randich et al. (2007) and Garcia Lopez et al. (1995) are shown as filled green triangles. Abundances for Hyades stars from Boesgaard & King (2002) and from Pleiades stars from Boesgaard et al. (2003b) are shown as “ × ” and “ + ” symbols, respectively. Abundances for NGC 2516 stars from Randich et al. (2007) are shown as full black circles and abundances for field stars from Santos et al. (2004) are shown as open triangles. The dashed line indicates the solar value.
