Analysis of 26 barium stars. II. Contributions of s-, r-, and p-processes in the production of heavy elements
Context: .Barium stars show enhanced abundances for the slow neutroncapture (s-process) heavy elements, so they are suitable objects forstudying s-process elements. Aims: .The aim of this work is toquantify the contributions of the s-, r-, and p-processes for the totalabundance of heavy elements from abundances derived for a sample of 26barium stars. The abundance ratios between these processes and neutronexposures were studied. Methods: .The abundances of the samplestars were compared to those of normal stars, thus identifying thefraction relative to the main component of the s-process. Results:.The fittings of the σ N curves (neutron-capture cross-sectiontimes abundance, plotted against atomic mass number) for the samplestars suggest that the material from the companion asymptotic giantbranch star had approximately the solar isotopic composition as concernsfractions of abundances relative to the s-process main component. Theabundance ratios of heavy elements, hs, ls, and s and the computedneutron exposure are similar to those of post-AGB stars. For some samplestars, an exponential neutron exposure fits the observed data well,whereas a single neutron exposure provides a better fit for others. Conclusions: .The comparison of barium and AGB stars supports thehypothesis of binarity for the barium star formation. Abundances ofr-elements that are part of the s-process path in barium stars areusually higher than those in normal stars, so barium stars also seemedto be enriched in r-elements, although to a lower degree thans-elements. No dependence on luminosity classes was found in theabundance-ratio behaviour among the dwarfs and giants of the sample ofbarium stars.

Analysis of 26 barium stars. I. Abundances
Context: .We present a detailed analysis of 26 barium stars, includingdwarf barium stars, providing their atmospheric parameters (T_eff, logg, [Fe/H], v_t), and elemental abundances. Aims: .We aim atderiving gravities and luminosity classes of the sample stars, inparticular to confirm the existence of dwarf barium stars. Accurateabundances of chemical elements were derived. We present the abundanceratios between nucleosynthetic processes, by using Eu and Ba asrepresentatives of the r- and s-processes. Methods:.High-resolution spectra were obtained with the FEROS spectrograph atthe ESO-1.52 m Telescope, along with photometric data with Fotrap at theZeiss telescope at the LNA. The atmospheric parameters were derived inan iterative way, with temperatures obtained from colour-temperaturecalibrations. The abundances were derived using spectrum synthesis forLi, Na, Al, α-, iron-peak, s-, and r-element atomic lines, and forC and N molecular lines. Results: .Atmospheric parameters in therange 4300 < T_eff < 6500, -1.2 < [Fe/H] < 0.0, and 1.4≤ log g < 4.6 were derived, confirming that our sample containsgiants, subgiants, and dwarfs. The abundance results obtained for Li,Al, Na, α-, and iron-peak elements for the sample stars show thatthey are compatible with the values found in the literature for normaldisk stars in the same range of metallicities. Enhancements of C, N, andheavy elements relative to Fe, that characterise barium stars, werederived and showed that [X/Ba] vs. [Ba/H] and [X/Ba] vs. [Fe/H] presentdifferent behaviour as compared to [X/Eu] vs. [Eu/H] and [X/Eu] vs.[Fe/H], reflecting the different nucleosynthetic sites for the s- andr-processes.

Barium stars, galactic populations and evolution.
In this paper HIPPARCOS astrometric and kinematical data together withradial velocities from other sources are used to calibrate bothluminosity and kinematics parameters of Ba stars and to classify them.We confirm the results of our previous paper (where we used data fromthe HIPPARCOS Input Catalogue), and show that Ba stars are aninhomogeneous group. Five distinct classes have been found i.e. somehalo stars and four groups belonging to disk population: roughlysuper-giants, two groups of giants (one on the giant branch, the otherat the clump location) and dwarfs, with a few subgiants mixed with them.The confirmed or suspected duplicity, the variability and the range ofknown orbital periods found in each group give coherent resultssupporting the scenario for Ba stars that are not too highly massivebinary stars in any evolutionary stages but that all were previouslyenriched with Ba from a more evolved companion. The presence in thesample of a certain number of ``false'' Ba stars is confirmed. Theestimates of age and mass are compatible with models for stars with astrong Ba anomaly. The mild Ba stars with an estimated mass higher than3Msun_ may be either stars Ba enriched by themselves or``true'' Ba stars, which imposes new constraints on models.

Absolute magnitudes and kinematics of barium stars.
The absolute magnitude of barium stars has been obtained fromkinematical data using a new algorithm based on the maximum-likelihoodprinciple. The method allows to separate a sample into groupscharacterized by different mean absolute magnitudes, kinematics andz-scale heights. It also takes into account, simultaneously, thecensorship in the sample and the errors on the observables. The methodhas been applied to a sample of 318 barium stars. Four groups have beendetected. Three of them show a kinematical behaviour corresponding todisk population stars. The fourth group contains stars with halokinematics. The luminosities of the disk population groups spread alarge range. The intrinsically brightest one (M_v_=-1.5mag,σ_M_=0.5mag) seems to be an inhomogeneous group containing bariumbinaries as well as AGB single stars. The most numerous group (about 150stars) has a mean absolute magnitude corresponding to stars in the redgiant branch (M_v_=0.9mag, σ_M_=0.8mag). The third group containsbarium dwarfs, the obtained mean absolute magnitude is characteristic ofstars on the main sequence or on the subgiant branch (M_v_=3.3mag,σ_M_=0.5mag). The obtained mean luminosities as well as thekinematical results are compatible with an evolutionary link betweenbarium dwarfs and classical barium giants. The highly luminous group isnot linked with these last two groups. More high-resolutionspectroscopic data will be necessary in order to better discriminatebetween barium and non-barium stars.

UBV photometry of barium stars
Magnitudes in V and B-V and U-B colors observed by the 91-cm telescopeat Okayama are presented for 109 stars including both classical andmarginal barium stars. The two-color diagram shows a fair amount ofspread. This can be interpreted by interstellar reddening and variableamounts of line blocking effect. Both classical and marginal bariumstars form a fairly homogeneous group.

Taxonomy of barium stars
Spectral classification, barium intensity, radial velocity, luminosity,and kinematical properties are determined for 389 barium stars byanalyzing image-tube spectra and photometric observation data. Diskkinematics for the stars are based on whether they are Ba weak or Bastrong. Weak barium stars in general have smaller velocity dispersions,brighter apparent magnitude, and lower luminosity than strong bariumstars. These characteristics are confirmed by solving for meanspectroscopic distances, z-scale height distances, and reduced propermotions.

Kinematic and spatial distributions of barium stars - Are the barium stars and AM stars related?
The possibility of an evolutionary link between Am stars and bariumstars is considered, and an examination of previous data suggests thatbarium star precursors are main-sequence stars of intermediate mass, aremost likely A and/or F dwarfs, and are intermediate-mass binaries withclose to intermediate orbital separations. The possible role of masstransfer in the later development of Am systems is explored. Masstransfer and loss from systems with a range of masses and orbitalseparations may explain such statistical peculiarities of barium starsas the large dispersion in absolute magnitude, the large range ofelemental abundances from star to star, and the small number of starswith large peculiar velocities.

A catalog of spectral classification and photometry of barium stars
Many other Ba II stars have been found, since the enhancement of theline of singly ionized barium (4554 A) in late-type, high-luminositystars was discovered by Bidelman and Keenan (1951). The majority ofstars so identified are listed in a study conducted by MacConnell et al.(1972). MacConnell et al. identified 150 'certain' barium stars and anadditional 90 'marginal' barium stars from inspection of objective-prismplates of the Michigan Spectral Survey of the southern sky. Since themajority of known Ba II stars were discovered with objective-prismplates, they have lacked high-quality spectral classifications. It hasbeen attempted to obtain these data along with broad- andintermediate-band photometry, in order to study the properties of thissubgroup of stars in greater detail than has heretofore been possible.Except for the stars recently identified by Bidelman (1981), the list ofspectroscopic and photometric data in Table 1 includes virtually allrecognized barium stars. The stars identified by Bidelman are listed inTable 2.
