Spectroscopy of Early F Stars: γ Doradus Candidates and Possible Metallic Shell Stars
We obtained high-resolution spectroscopic observations of 34 γDoradus candidates. From the red-wavelength spectra, we determinedspectral classes, radial velocities, and projected rotationalvelocities. The spectra of seven late A or early F stars show metalliclines that have composite profiles consisting of a narrow component nearthe center of a broad line, indicating that they may be shell stars orbinaries. Several stars, including HD 152896, HD 173977, HD 175337, andHD 195068/9, show large line profile asymmetries. Two stars, HD 11443(=α Trianguli) and HD 149420, are ellipsoidal variables and notγ Doradus stars. The percentage of binary systems in our samplemay be as high as 74%.
| Five New δ Scuti Stars
We present high-resolution spectroscopy and precision photometry of fivenew, relatively bright δ Scuti stars. They were originally chosenas photometric comparison stars in our program of automated,high-precision photometry of solar-type stars and subsequentlyrecognized as new variable stars. We conducted follow-up spectroscopicand photometric observations to determine the properties of the starsand their types of variability. All five of the stars presented herebelong to the most common subgroup of low-amplitude, Population Iδ Scuti variables. One of the stars, HD 10502, is the thirdexample of a δ Scuti variable with composite broad and narrowspectroscopic line profiles suggesting the presence of a circumstellarshell or disk.
