    Chemical composition of the RS CVn-type star lambda andromedae
    (Berlin : de Gruyter, 2010) Tautvaišiené, G.; Barisevičius, G.; Berdyugina, Svetlana V.; Chorniy, Yuriy; Ilyin, Ilya V.
    Photospheric parameters and chemical composition are determined for the single-lined chromospherically active RS CVn-type star λ And (HD 222107). From the high resolution spectra obtained on the Nordic Optical Telescope, abundances of 22 chemical elements and isotopes, including such key elements as 12C, 13C, N and O, were investigated. The differential line analysis with the MARCS model atmospheres gives Teff = 4830 K, log g = 2.8, [Fe/H] = -0.53, [C/Fe] = 0.09, [N/Fe] = 0.35, [O/Fe] = 0.45, C/N = 2.21, 12C/13C = 14. The 12C/13C ratio for a star of the RS CVn-type is determined for the first time, and its low value gives a hint that extra-mixing processes may start acting in low-mass chromospherically active stars below the bump of the luminosity function of red giants.
