Iron-peak Element Abundances in Warm Very Metal-poor Stars

We have derived new detailed abundances of Mg, Ca, and the Fe-group elements Sc through Zn ( Z = 21−30) for 37 main-sequence turnoff very metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] ≲−2.1). We analyzed Keck HIRES optical and near-UV high signal-to-noise spectra originally gathered for a Be abundance survey. Using typi...
