Abstract
We present our first results in the analysis of the secondary star in the Low-Mass X-Ray binary (LMXB) Cygnus X-2, using a high resolution spectrum obtained with UES@WHT in ORM (La Palma, Tenerife). We have used a χ2 minimization procedure to create a grid of 1 500 000 LTE synthetic spectra that allow us to obtain a plausible range of values of the stellar parameters, taking into account any possible veiling from the accretion disk produced by the presence of a neutron star as the primary. We will study the chemical abundances of several elements and study their anomalies regarding Galactic trends.
