Why is interesting to investigate<br />

The chemical composition of OB stars in the Orion star forming region<br />

(in the context of this conference)<br />

Photospheres of OB type main sequence stars keep the<br />

same chemical composition as the local ISM from which<br />

they were born<br />

OB stars (actually, low vsini early B-type): An alternative<br />

tool to investigate the present-day chemical composition<br />

of the Galactic region where they are located<br />

Direct comparison* with the abundances derived from<br />

the study of the Orion nebula (same Galactic site)<br />

* Be aware of dust depletion and the possible<br />

enrichment of the youngest stars by type-II SNe ejecta<br />

(O, Si ...) in a sequential star formation scenario
