Is the Post-AGB Star SAO 40039 Mildly Hydrogen-Deficient?

Rao, S. Sumangala; Pandey, Ganjendra; Lambert, David L.; Giridhar, Sunetra (2011-08)

We have conducted an LTE abundance analysis for SAO 40039, a warm post-AGB star whose spectrum is known to show surprisingly strong He I lines for its effective temperature and has been suspected of being H-deficient and ...
