Abstract

We present abundances of Ti, Fe, and Ni as well as 10 post-iron-peak elements in the extrinsic, Galactic S star HD 35155. This star is of interest because it shows many characteristics of symbiotic stars and displays the same pattern of abundance enhancements observed in yellow symbiotic stars. It is clear that HD 35155 is associated with the symbiotic stars and provides an important link between the symbiotic phenomena and chemically peculiar stars. In addition, the abundance ratio of heavy to light s-process elements correlates with the metallicity of HD 35155, as is expected if the 13C neutron source drives the s-process. Our models predict that the abundance of lead should be enhanced by a factor of between 50 to 500 in HD 35155.
