Abstract:
From a sample of nearly 2000 GK giants a group of young disk stars
with well determined space motions has been selected. The zero point
of the luminosity calibrations, both from the ultraviolet flux
(modified Stromgren system) and that in the region of 4200 to 4900A
(DDO system), show a discontinuity of about a half magnitude at the
border of the young disk and old disk domains. The population
separation is based on the space velocity components, which are also
an age discriminants with the population interface near 2x10^9yr,
based on models with convective overshoot at the core. This age
corresponds to giant masses near 1.7M_{sun}_, near the critical mass
separating the young stars that do not burn helium in degenerate cores
from older stars that do. Ten percent of both populations show CN
anomalies in that the derived value of P[Fe/H] from CN(C_m_) and from
Fe(M_1_) differ by more than 0.1dex and the weak and strong CN stars
occur equally in the old disk but the weak CN stars predominate in the
young disk. Peculiar stars, where flux distortions affect the
luminosity calibrations, are of the CH+ (Ba II) and CH- (weak G band)
variety and represent less than 1% of the stars in both populations.
The young disk giants are restricted to ages greater than about
10^9^yr, because younger stars are bright giants or supergiants
(luminosity class II or I), and younger than about 2x10^9yr, because
the old disk-young disk boundary occurs near 1.7M_{sun}_. The
distribution of heavy element abundances, P[Fe/H], for young disk
giants is both more limited in range (+/-0.4dex) and is skewed toward
higher abundances, compared with the nearly normal distribution for
old disk giants. The distribution of (U,V) velocity vectors gives
(U,V,W) and their dispersions =(+17.6+/-18.4, -14.8+/-8.4, -6.9+/-13.0)
and (+3.6+/-38.4, -20.7+/-27.5, -6.7+/-17.3) km/s for young and old
disk giants, respectively.
For a description of the DDO and RI Eggen photometric system, see e.g.
<GCPD/12> and <GCPD/17> , respectively.
