We derive the effective temperature, surface gravity and microturbulence of all targets using standard methods. Further we derive LTE abundances of [Fe/H] and [O/Fe] as well as the abundance of sodium, using NLTE corrections. We find a mean metallicity for the cluster of [Fe/H]$=-0.75\\pm0.10$, in excellent agreement with several other studies. Also, we confirm the sodium-oxygen anticorrelation previously reported by a number of other authors. Finally, we see indications of the sodium enriched stars also being enriched in heavy magnesium isotopes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-01-14T14:54:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fundamental parameters", "red giants", "heavy magnesium isotopes", "initial results", "sodium enriched stars" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1210602, "adsabs": "2013MmSAI..84..261T" } } }
