THE GROUP

O. J. EGGEN Mount Stromlo and Siding Spring Observatories, Research School of Physical Sciences, The Australian National University Received 15 March 1971

Fifty-three probable members of a group of old disk population , moving with Arcturus, are discussed. The group includes the long period (250e1) variable RT Hydrae. The {My, B—V) and (Mboi, fí—/) diagrams of the group stars show the members to be among the oldest of the old disk population, similar in age, but not in chemical composition, to members of the old cluster NGC 188. Apogalactium for the group members is near the sun and there is some evidence for a nonrandom distribution of the U vectors of the space motions. The ultraviolet excess, 8(C/—ß)o.6' of the main-sequence members is +0Φ11 and spectroscopic analyses of three giant members give [Fe/H] near —0.5. The values of S{U— B)q q for seven groups of old disk population stars range from + 0Φ17 (σ Puppis group) to + 0^03 ( ε Indi group) with the old disk cluster M67 being similar to the latter. The value of E{B—V) = +0^06 for M67 is confirmed by early-type field stars in the vicinity of the cluster. The members of some of the old disk population groups that populate the (Μ^,Κ — Ι) plane near the clump of red giants (M^ol == 0m to + lm) are tabulated and discussed in connection with the suggested "supermetallicity" of some of these stars. It is concluded that the old disk popula- tion clusters and groups contain stars with values of [Fe/H] ranging from that of the Hyades to about 20 percent that of the sun. Available narrow-band photometric indices of early K-type giants are not directly useful for determining [Fe/H]. Key words: old disk stars — elemental abundances — photometry

Wolf 630 group members (open squares) in Figure 10 lie on the standard (Mg b, R— I) rela- tion, but these same stars have Ca ι lines ranging from 0.25 fainter to 0.25 brighter than the stan- dards. In the mean, the run of Caí intensity parallels the [Fe/H] and ô{U—B)06 results in Table V with the one member of the Arcturus group and four members of the σ Puppis group showing the weakest lines, displaced from the standard relation by about 0.25, and the ζ Her- culis group members showing little or no differ- ence from the standards. Apparently the narrow- band indices are no more capable of recognizing such small abundance differences as between the sun and the Hyades than is the usual spectro- scopic analysis. The situation concerning the Mg b line is more confused, pardy, perhaps, because of the effect of luminosity on these indices (cf. Deeming 1960). Perhaps the most ambitious attempt to use narrow-band indices for determining the com- position of K-type giants is that of Spinrad and Taylor (1969).
