Abstract

An analysis of the stars included in the catalogue of [FORMULA] Bootis stars by Paunzen et al. (1997) and which also have IUE observations is presented here. Population I A-F type stars as well as field horizontal branch stars were also included in the analysis. Using line-ratios of carbon to heavier elements (Al and Ni) allows us to establish unambiguous membership criteria for the [FORMULA] Bootis group.

Key words: stars: chemically peculiar – stars: early type – ultraviolet: stars
