我们提出了第一个详细的化学丰度的三个巨大的恒星,这是候选成员的大犬座超密度,通过使用FLAMES-UVES在VLT。在疏散星团NGC 2477的背景下,这些恒星的径向速度与该结构的成员资格相一致。然而,由于星系盘的污染,径向速度本身无法确定成员资格。金属丰度跨越小于或类似于[Fe/H]小于或类似于+0.1的范围-0.5。假设这三颗恒星中至少有一颗确实是CMa的成员,这意味着这个结构经历了高水平的化学处理,可以与银河系圆盘相媲美。其中最富金属的星星EIS 6631显示出与银河系恒星明显不同的几个丰度比:[α/Fe]接近于-0.2,[Cu/Fe]接近于+0.25,[La/Fe]接近于+0.6,[Ce/Fe]接近于+0.8,[Nd/Fe]接近于+0.6。这些比率表明这颗星星很可能是在外部星系中形成的。
We present the first detailed chemical abundances for three giant stars which are candidate members of the Canis Major overdensity, obtained by using FLAMES-UVES at VLT. The stars, in the background of the open cluster NGC 2477, have radial velocities compatible with a membership to this structure. However, due to Galactic disc contamination, radial velocity by itself is unable to firmly establish membership. The metallicities span the range -0.5 less than or similar to [Fe/H] less than or similar to +0.1. Assuming that at least one of the three stars is indeed a member of CMa implies that this structure has undergone a high level of chemical processing, comparable to that of the Galactic disc. The most metal-rich star of the sample, EIS 6631, displays several abundance ratios which are remarkably different from those of Galactic stars: [alpha/Fe] similar to -0.2, [Cu/Fe] similar to +0.25, [La/Fe] similar to +0.6, [Ce/Fe] similar to +0.8 and [Nd/Fe] similar to +0.6. These ratios make it likely that this star was formed in an external galaxy.
