Abstract
We estimate the Mn abundances in the atmospheres of 247 F-G-K-type dwarf stars belonging to the thin and thick disk populations in the metallicity range -1 < [Fe/H] < +0.3. The observations were conducted using the 1.93 m telescope at Observatoire de Haute-Provence (OHP, France) equipped with the echelle type spectrographs ELODIE and SOPHIE. The abundances were derived under the LTE approximation; the synthetic spectrum for the Mn lines was computed accounting for the hyperfine structure. Starting from the results obtained, we discuss the evolution of the [Mn/Fe] ratio with respect to [Fe/H] in the galactic disk.
