Abstract: Elemental Abundance Analyses with DAO Spectrograms – XXIV. The Mercury Manganese Stars upsilon Her, phi Her, HR 7018.
Elemental abundances analyses are performed for the Mercury-Manganese stars upsilon Her, phi Her, and HR 7018 consistent with previous studies of this series using spectrograms obtained with Reticon and CCD detectors. Comparisons of the first two analyses with those performed using coadded photographic plates show the consistency of the derived elemental abundances. For upsilon Her and for phi Her, abundances were newly found for O, and for Al, V, Zn, and Ce, respectively. HR 7018 is discovered to be a single-lined spectroscopic binary. Its Sc abundance is the smallest of any class member with derived abundances and its Sr abundance the largest of any known HgMn star.
