Sm. Andrievsky et al., CHEMICAL-COMPOSITION OF SELECTED DOUBLE-MODE CEPHEIDS AND THE P-1 P-0[FE/H] RELATION/, Astronomy & Astrophysics. Supplement series, 108(2), 1994, pp. 433-440
We present the results of the detailed spectroscopic investigation of
three double-mode Cepheids: EW Set, VX Pup and BQ Ser. The abundance a
nalysis has shown: (1) Carbon is deficient (the abundance normalized t
o the iron content with respect to the solar value). (2) This carbon d
eficiency is accompanied by nitrogen overabundance and normal oxygen c
ontent. (3) alpha- and iron group elements with little exception show
solar ratio [M/Fe]. (4) The heavy elements in EW Set are underabundant
. (5) Normal iron abundance for EW Set ([Fe/H]=-0.08) and metal defici
ency for VX Pup ([Fe/H]=-0.39) and BQ Ser ([Fe/H]=-0.36) strongly supp
ort the existence of a P-1/P-0-metallicity relation, as first discusse
d in work of Andrievsky et al. (1993).
