Chemical abundances of 451 stars from the HARPS GTO planet search program. Thin disc, thick disc, and planets
We present a uniform study of the chemical abundances of 12 elements(Si, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Na, Mg, and Al) derived from thespectra of 451 stars observed as part of one of the HARPS GTO planetsearch programs. Sixty eight of these are planet-bearing stars. The maingoals of our work are: i) the investigation of possible differencesbetween the abundances of stars with and without planets; ii) the studyof the possible differences in the abundances of stars in the thin andthe thick disc. We confirm that there is a systematically highermetallicity in planet host stars, when compared to non planet-hosts,common to all studied species. We also found that there is no differencein the galactic chemical evolution trends of the stars with and withoutplanets. Stars that harbour planetary companions simply appear to be inthe high metallicity tail of the distribution. We also confirm thatNeptunian and super-Earth class planets may be easier to find at lowermetallicities. A statistically significative abundance differencebetween stars of the thin and the thick disc was found for [ Fe/H] <0. However, the populations from the thick and the thin disc cannot beclearly separated.Based on observations collected at the La Silla Parana Observatory, ESO(Chile) with the HARPS spectrograph at the 3.6 m telescope, under theGTO program 072.C-0488.

| Spectroscopic parameters for 451 stars in the HARPS GTO planet search program. Stellar [Fe/H] and the frequency of exo-Neptunes
To understand the formation and evolution of solar-type stars in thesolar neighborhood, we need to measure their stellar parameters to highaccuracy. We present a catalogue of accurate stellar parameters for 451stars that represent the HARPS Guaranteed Time Observations (GTO)“high precision” sample. Spectroscopic stellar parameterswere measured using high signal-to-noise (S/N) spectra acquired with theHARPS spectrograph. The spectroscopic analysis was completed assumingLTE with a grid of Kurucz atmosphere models and the recent ARES code formeasuring line equivalent widths. We show that our results agree wellwith those ones presented in the literature (for stars in common). Wepresent a useful calibration for the effective temperature as a functionof the index color B-V and [Fe/H]. We use our results to study themetallicity-planet correlation, namely for very low mass planets. Theresults presented here suggest that in contrast to their joviancouterparts, neptune-like planets do not form preferentially aroundmetal-rich stars. The ratio of jupiter-to-neptunes is also an increasingfunction of stellar metallicity. These results are discussed in thecontext of the core-accretion model for planet formation.Based on observations collected at La Silla Observatory, ESO, Chile,with the HARPS spectrograph at the 3.6-m telescope (072.C-0488(E)).
