Scientific paper

A spectroscopic, photometric and evolutionary study is presented for HD 112989, an active peculiar giant star. The present spectroscopic observations show a significant CaII K&H emission core variability, whereas the UBV photometry shows that HD 112989 has a variable brightness. The rotational velocity for this star, 11.0 kms(-1) , is about five times larger than the mean rotational velocity for giants with the same spectral type. In addition, we have found no sign of binarity for this star. Based on observations collected at the Observatoire de Haute-Provence (France) and at the Bulgarian National Astronomical Observatory-Rozhen (Bulgaria)
