Abstract

New abundances for several chemical elements are measured for HD 1280 using updated atomic data and spectrum synthesis. The abundances of calcium and scandium are solar whereas strontium is mildly overabundant. The abundances of helium, magnesium, titanium, chromium, manganese, iron and barium are in good agreement with a former abundance analysis. This reinforces the status of HD 1280 as a normal rapidly rotating A star with essentially normal abundances of elements lighter than iron and mild overabundances of heavier elements which may actually have been present in the environment where the star was born.
