High-resolution spectra of 9 RGB stars in NGC6681

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We obtain high-resolution spectra of nine red giant branch stars in NGC 6681 and perform the first detailed abundance analysis of stars in this cluster.

Description

We confirm cluster membership for these stars based on consistent radial velocities of 214.5+/-3.7km/s and find a mean [Fe/H]=-1.63+/-0.07dex and [{alpha}/Fe]=0.42+/-0.11dex. Additionally, we confirm the existence of a Na-O anti-correlation in NGC 6681 and identify two populations of stars with unique abundance trends.

With the use of HST photometry from Sarajedini+ (2007AJ....133.1658S) and Piotto+ (2015AJ....149...91P) we are able to identify these two populations as discrete sequences in the cluster CMD. Although we cannot confirm the nature of the polluter stars responsible for the abundance differences in these populations, these results do help put constraints on possible polluter candidates.
