2945 kF0hF2mF2 (III) This may be a mild Am star. The Ca II K-line is a bit weak 2945 (although this may be due to noise), but the Ca I 4226 line is clearly 2945 weak. Otherwise, the star looks normal, and there is no clear indication 2945 it is a composite. 2145 F6 III Fe-1.0 Again, I don't think that this is a composite star. The 2145 Ca II H line is clearly too deep, and is probably due to a noise spike or 2145 some other processing error. The Ca II K-line is okay. The hydrogen lines 2145 are a good match with an F6 III star, and, bearing in mind that the star 2145 is metal-weak, the luminosity indicators, Sr II 4077 & Fe II, Ti II 4172-8 2145 indicate III or possibly as luminous as II. The general metallic line 2145 strength is like that of the F0 III standard, which yields the above 2145 metallicity index. Note that this does not imply that [Fe/H]=-1.0. 2145 My experience suggests that Fe-1.0 suggests closer to [Fe/H]=-0.5, with 2145 some considerable uncertainty. 0833 Quite similar to 2145, and has a very similar classification. I believe it 0833 is normal as well, and that the unusually deep Ca II H-line is due to a 0833 noise spike or processing error. 1875 F2 III: composite?? This star really has me scratching my head; I can come 1875 up with no solution yet. The problem is that the hydrogen lines have wings 1875 which match quite well at F2-F5 III, but their depths are only about 1875 one-half what they should be! The Ca II K&H lines are shallow as well, but 1875 nearly equally shallow, which puts the kibosh on this star being an early 1875 F-giant in a binary with a, say, dwarf B-star. If that were the case, the 1875 K-line would be much weaker than the Ca II H-line, somewhat like 3114, 1875 which presents similar problems (see its H-lines). Rotation does not help 1875 as the metal lines look quite sharp. The only way that I can possibly 1875 understand this star is if there is some source of continuum radiation 1875 (say an accretion disk around a WD in the system), but I would expect to 1875 see hydrogen emission lines in such a system. Another possibility is some 1875 sort of processing error. Is that possible? I can roughly approximate the 1875 appearance of this star by adding 50% scattered light to an F-type star, 1875 but the Ca II K and H lines turn out too shallow. Could this be a 1875 hydrogen-deficient star - maybe a post-AGB star??? 3114 F2 V + sdOB? This star has similar problems to 1875 - fairly broad hydrogen 3114 wings (about F2), but much too shallow. However, 3114 has a truncated 3114 K-line, which almost certainly means that it is a composite. I call this 3114 star a dwarf because the luminosity indicators (Sr II 4077, Fe II, 3114 Ti II 4172-8) all suggest a dwarf. Also, the weaker metal lines point to 3114 the lower microturbulent velocity we might expect in a dwarf. However, it 3114 does appear that the entire spectrum is "veiled" probably with a hot 3114 companion with weak hydrogen lines (a subdwarf OB star suggests itself 3114 here - especially a helium-weak one - see work by John Drilling on the 3114 classification of sdOB stars). I expect that this star is in our halo and 3114 not in the SMC at all. But I can't explain the velocity.
