Abstract
  • Aims. We determine the atmospheric parameters and abundance pattern of the chemically peculiar metal-poor Fehrenbach & Duflot (Feh-Duf) star to more clearly understand its evolutionary state and the nature of the s-element enhancement in this star. Methods. Its atmospheric parameters and chemical abundances were determined using high resolution optical spectroscopy and employing the local-thermodynamic-equilibrium model atmospheres of Kurucz and spectral analysis code MOOG. Results. The derived abundances show that the Feh-Duf star is a low-metallicity ([Fe/H] =  −1.93) star with high carbon and heavy s-element abundances, while the abundance of the light s-process element yttrium is low ([Y/Fe] =  −0.07). The oxygen abundance is lower than for Galactic halo stars of similar metallicity.We conclude that the Feh-Duf star could be a CH star with C/O = 1.3. Another possibility is that the Feh-Duf star could be an early-AGB star. The Fehrenbach & Duflot star is also a lead star with [Pb/Ce] = +0.69. In addition, it displays an extreme retrograde motion ( VGRF =  −259 km s -1), which in combination with its underabundance of α-elements suggests that this star may have been captured by the Milky Way galaxy.
