Abstract:
A detailed model atmosphere analysis of high-resolution and high S/N
CCD spectra of IIPeg has yielded for the first time a self-consistent
set of fundamental parameters of the primary component: T_eff_=4600K,
logg=3.2, [M/H]=-0.4, {xi}_t_=2.0km/s. In addition, 121 new high
quality radial velocity measurements allowed us to determine improved
orbital parameters, resulting in a new orbital ephemeris of
T_conj_=2449582.9268+6.724333E. The position of the primary of II Peg
in the HR diagram with the new parameters corresponds to a K2 IV star
with mass =~0.8M_{sun}_. The evolved character of the star is
confirmed by the C/N ratio, which is reduced significantly relative to
the solar value. The unspotted V magnitude of the star of 6.9mag is
estimated from the observed variations of the TiO bands and
quasi-simultaneous photometry. The blend of LiI 6707{AA} is suspected
to vary in equivalent width due to spot modulation. The lithium
abundance for the unspotted star, Li/H=1.0+/-0.1, is found to be
consistent with other post-main sequence chromospherically active
stars. Combining all parameters, the radius R=~3.4R_{sun}_ and the
inclination i=~60{deg} of the primary are estimated with the
assumption that its rotational axis is perpendicular to the orbital
plane. The secondary is probably a M0-M3 V star with a mass of about
0.4M_{sun}_.
