| Description | We present Be abundances derived through spectral synthesis for two Li-rich giants and a Li-normal giant, plus α Cen A and B, based on observations of the Be II λ 3130.420 and 3131.066 Å lines obtained with the CASPEC spectrograph at the ESO 3.6m telescope. The values derived for the two Li-rich giants (HD146850, HD787) agree with the one for the Li-normal giant (HD220321), and shows that Be was depleted in these stars (by > 90% i.e. by a factor of 10 or larger from the initial Pop I value (logN(Be)= 1.4)). This result implies that the original Li in these stars was almost completely destroyed, and that Li is most probably produced in red giants. |
