Metal-rich halo A stars
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
The results of spectrophotometry of the Ca II K and Balmer lines and radial velocity measurements for stars earlier than type F0, with 10<V<15.5 in fields at (l;b)=(90deg, 270deg; -45deg) are reported.
Description
Slit spectroscopy of 320 stars shows that in this magnitude range there are ~80 stars with [Fe/H]>-0.5. The metal-rich population has a vertical scale height of ~600pc and a space density at the Sun equal to 1/225 of the young thin disk A star population.
The metal-rich A stars have V_rot_=210+/-60km/s with decreasing angular momentum as a function of distance from the Galactic plane. The line-of-sight velocity dispersion is 40+/-3km/s indicating an anomalous relation between structure and kinematics. There is strong evidence that these stars are identical in properties to the metal-rich extended populations found by Perry [1969AJ.....74..139P] at the NGP and Rodgers [1971ApJ...165..581R] at the SGP.
