Massive stars vs. nebular abundances in the Orion nebula

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The search of consistency between nebular and massive star abundances has been a longstanding problem. I briefly review what has been done regarding to this topic, also presenting a recent study focused on the Orion nebula: the O and Si stellar abundances resulting from a detailed and fully consistent spectroscopic analysis of the group of B stars associated with the Orion nebula are compared with the most recent nebular gas-phase results.
