Abstract: |
The measurement of elemental abundances of Asymptotic Giant Branch
(AGB) stars is a highly challenging task that so far has not been
solved in a satisfactory way. We report here on our efforts to
confront predictions from hydrostatic and dynamical model atmospheres
with observational results based on
high-resolution spectra of variable and non-variable giants
in the globular cluster 47 Tuc. Our goal is to estimate the impact
of atmospheric dynamics on the abundance determination. |
