The correlations between the relative\u0000 abundances of chemical elements and their second ionization potentials were calculated\u0000 for groups of stars with effective temperatures between 3,764 and 7,725 K. Correlations\u0000 were identified for chemical elements with second ionization potentials of 12.5 eV to 20\u0000 eV and for elements with second ionization potentials higher than 20 eV. For the first\u0000 group of elements, the correlation coefficients were positive for stars with effective\u0000 temperatures lower than 5,300 K and negative for stars with effective temperatures from\u0000 5,300 K to 7,725 K. The results of this study and the comparison with earlier results\u0000 for hotter stars confirm the variations in these correlations with the effective\u0000 temperature. A possible explanation for the observed effects is the accretion of\u0000 hydrogen and helium atoms from the interstellar medium.","PeriodicalId":44366,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences","volume":"80 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84235537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
