Chemical Abundances in Metal-Rich Bulge-like Stars

We have derived chemical abundances for Ca, Ti, Si, Mg, O, Na, Al, Ni, Co and Cr for a sample of stars with peculiar kinematics and probable origin near the bulge. Our sample stars are in the metallicity range = −0.8 ≤ [Fe/H] ≤ +0.6 dex, and have small pericentric distances, Rp ≤ 3.5 kpc, small scale height, with Zmax +0.3 dex. Compared to bulge stars, such elements are deficient in our sample stas. For the iron-peak elements Cr and Ni we have found a slightly overabundant behavior relative to both thin and thick disks distributions in the metal-poor range, and a smooth decreasing trend for [Cr/Fe] for stars in the supersolar regime. [Co/Fe] ratios track the solar value in the metal-poor range, and show an underabundant behavior relative do thin disk stars for metallicities [Fe/H] > 0.0 de
