Scientific paper

The differential curve-of-growth method is used to analyze the spectrum of UV Cas in the 4100-6700 A region at 28 A/mm dispersion. In addition to the determination of a G4-G5 spectral type, a microturbulent velocity of 11 km/sec, and an electron pressure log p(e) of -1.1, it is found that the atmospheres of UV Cas and R CrB have almost the same Ti, Sc, and Ba abundances, and a similarity in each of these abundances to solar values, while the C/Fe ratio in UV Cas is about 100 times that of the sun.
