Scientific paper

I will be presenting abundances of X elements and physical properties for a selection of nearby radial velocity planet search candidates. The abundances are derived from high resolution spectra from MIKE on Magellan. These are the first results of an attempt to create a uniform high resolution chemical abundance database that can be used to understand the chemical evolution of nearby stars, in particular those with potentially habitable worlds. These high resolution spectra are the first from a group of 600 nearby stars, obtained by Paul Butler(Carnigie Institute of Washington).
