dc.description.abstract | LSIV-14 116 is a very unusual subdwarf B star. It pulsates non-radially with high-order g-modes, these pulsations are unexpected and unexplained, as the effective temperature is 6 000K hotter than the blue edge of the hot subdwarf g-mode instability strip. Its spectrum is enriched in helium which is not seen in either the V361 Hya (p-mode pulsators) or the V1093 Her stars (g-mode pulsators). Even more unusual is the 4 dex overabundance of zirconium, yttrium, and strontium. It is proposed that these over-abundances are a result of extreme chemical stratification driven by radiative levitation. We have over 20hrs of VLT/UVES spectroscopy from which we have obtained radial velocity curves for individual absorption lines. We are currently exploring ways in which to resolve the photospheric motion as a function of optical depth. | |
