Hi all,

Does anyone know if there is a recent table of the abundances of elements in the Small Magellanic Cloud.

Thanks all
 
Astronomy news on Phys.org
The metallicities are fairly low, with [Fe/H]~-0.6 dex or so. The relative abundances in that paper are really good, the absolute ones are somewhat more uncertain as HI is hard to get. Start there, maybe check who has referenced it and go from there.. .

ISM abundances in the SMC from the HST
Welty et al., 2001, ApJ, 554, 75
 
See also Venn 1999, "A-Type Supergiant Abundances in the Small Magellanic Cloud: Probes of Evolution", references therein and citations to the paper.
 
THANK YOU! Very helpful
