40 field red supergiants in the SMC

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Low-resolution spectra (~5A) for 40 red supergiants in the Small Magellanic Cloud were compared with synthetic spectra, and their metallicities were derived.

Description

A mean metallicity of [Fe/He]=-0.71 is found for 38 stars cooler than T_eff_<4500K. Using the stellar parameters derived, the carbon abundances were determined by comparing synthetic spectra at the G-band region to the observed spectra.

A mean {epsilon}(C)=7.85 is found, clearly higher than the low values suggested in the literature for the H II regions.
