High-resolution spectroscopic analysis of four new chemically peculiar stars

We present detailed chemical compositions of four stars on the first-ascent red giant branch that are classified as chemically peculiar, but lack comprehensive analyses at high spectral resolution. For BD+03{\deg}2688, HE 0457-1805, HE 1255-2324, and HE 2207-1746, we derived metallicities [Fe/H] $=-1.21$, $-0.19$, $-0.31$, and $-0.55$, respectively, indicating a range in Galactic population membership. In addition to atmospheric parameters, we extracted elemental abundances for 28 elements, including the evolutionary-sensitive CNO group and $^{12}$C/$^{13}$C ratios. Novel results are also presented for the heavy elements tungsten and thallium. All four stars have very large enhancements of neutron-capture elements, with high [La/Eu] ratios indicating enrichments from the slow neutron capture ($s$-process). To interpret these abundances, all indicative of [$s$/Fe] $> 1.0$, we compared our results with data from literature, as well as with predictions from the Monash and FRUITY $s$-process nucleosynthesis models. BD+03{\deg}2688, HE 1255-2324, and HE 2207-1746 show C/O $>1$, while HE 0457-1805 has C/O $
