Age and chemical composition of the globular cluster NGC 6652

M. E. Sharina, V. V. Shimansky

Published 2020-04-13Version 1

We present the results of determination of the age, helium mass fraction (Y), metallicity ([Fe/H]), and abundances of the elements C, N, O, Na, Mg, Ca, Ti, C, and Mn for the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6652. We use its medium-resolution integrated-light spectrum from the library of Schiavon and our population synthesis method to fulfill this task. We select for our analysis the evolutionary isochrone and stellar mass function which provide the best approximation of the shapes and intensities of the observed Balmer line profiles. The determined elemental abundances, age and metallicity are characteristic of stellar populations of the Galactic Bulge.
