The $\lambda$ Boo stars are chemically peculiar A-type stars whose abundance anomalies are associated with the accretion of metal-poor material. We searched for $\lambda$ Boo stars in the southern hemisphere in a targeted spectroscopic…
We publish here the second part of our spectroscopic survey at high dispersion of some known and suspected lambda Bootis stars with a view to detecting circumstellar shell features. Eight stars of our sample exhibit such features. These…
We analyse TESS light curves for 70 southern $\lambda$ Boo stars to identify binaries and to determine which of them pulsate as $\delta$ Scuti stars. We find two heartbeat stars and two eclipsing binaries among the sample. We calculate that…
The spectral features of HD 94509 are highly unusual, adding an extreme to the zoo of Be and shell stars. The shell dominates the spectrum, showing lines typical for spectral types mid-A to early-F, while the presence of a late/mid B-type…
High angular resolution observations have shown that some stars classified as lambda Boo are binaries with low values of angular separation and magnitude difference of the components; therefore the observed spectrum of these objects is a…
Within a project to investigate the properties of lambda Bootis stars, we report on their abundance pattern. High resolution spectra have been obtained for a total of twelve candidate lambda Bootis stars, four of them being contained in…
Stellar spectral classification has been highly useful in the study of stars. While there is a currently accepted spectral classification system for carbon stars, the subset of Hydrogen-deficient Carbon (HdC) stars has not been well…
The group of lambda Bootis type stars comprises late B- to early F-type, Population I objects which are basically metal weak, in particular the Fe group elements, but with the clear exception of C, N, O and S. One of the theories to explain…
The results of the abundance analyses of six lambda Bootis stars are presented. For three stars, the impact of individual ODFs and various treatments of convection in the calculactions of the model atmospheres are investigated.
We present a mini-survey of Galactic B[e] stars mainly undertaken with the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT). B[e] stars show morphological features with hydrogen emission lines and an infrared excess, attributed to warm circumstellar dust.…
We have carried out a spectroscopic survey of several B, Be, and shell stars in optical and near-infrared regions. Line profiles of the H-alpha line and of selected Fe II and O I lines are presented.
In this paper we analyze the line-strength indices in the Lick-system measured by Longhetti et al. (1998a, b) for a sample of 51 early-type galaxies located in low density environments (LDE) and showing signatures of fine structures and/or…
Broad emission lines are the most characteristic features in the spectra of active galaxies. They mostly show either a single-peaked or double-peaked profiles; and originate from a complex dynamics of the likely discrete clouds moving in a…
Major improvements in models of chemically peculiar stars have been achieved in the past few years. With these new models it has been possible to test quantitatively some of the processes involved in the formation of abundance anomalies and…
Temperature, surface gravity, and metallicitity are basic stellar atmospheric parameters necessary to characterize a star. We aim to improve the description of the spectroscopic temperatures especially for the cooler stars where the…
It is still a matter of debate if the group of lambda Bootis stars is homogeneously defined. A widely discussed working hypothesis formulates that two apparent solar abundant stars of an undetected spectroscopic binary system mimic a single…
Shell stars, in particular the cooler ones, often do not show conspicuous Balmer-line emission and may consequently be missed in surveys that specifically search for emission signatures in the Halpha line. The present work is aimed at…
We examine the large sample of lambda Boo candidates collected in Table 1 of Gerbaldi et al. (2003) to see how many of them show composite spectra. Of the 132 lambda Boo candidates we identify 22 which definitely show composite spectra and…
Model atmospheres of A and B stars are computed taking into account magnetic line blanketing. These calculations are based on the new stellar model atmosphere code LLModels which implements direct treatment of the opacities due to the…
High-resolution spectra of lambda Bootis stars reveal the presence of circumstellar gas for example in the Ca K line. The example of the normal A star beta Pictoris shows, that the narrow stable absorption component in Ca K can be…
