ELEMENTAL ABUNDANCE STUDIES OF CP STARS - THE SILICON STAR HD-43819 AND THE CP STAR HD-147550

Fine analyses of the silicon star HD 43819 and the CP star HD 147550 a re presented using ATLAS9 model atmospheres whose predictions fit the optical region spectrophotometry and Hy profiles and have the same bul k metallicity as the deduced abundances. For HD 43819 except for scand ium and nickel, the derived abundances of the iron peak elements are a round 10 times solar while those of the rare earths are about 1000 tim es solar. The lighter elements are generally underabundant except for silicon and calcium which are overabundant. HD 147550 is helium and ca lcium poor; carbon, magnesium, aluminum, scandium, titanium, and iron normal; and sulfur, chromium, manganese, nickel, strontium, zirconium, barium, europium, and mercury rich. It is a nonmagnetic CP star inter mediate between the HgMn and the hot Am stars.
