| Abstract | We report a new hot post-asymptotic giant branch (PAGB) star in the Galactic globular cluster (GC) E3, which is one of the first of the identified PAGB stars in a GC to show a binary signature. The star stands out as the brightest source in E3 in the Astrosat/UVIT images. We confirmed its membership with the cluster E3 using Gaia DR3 kinematics and parallax measurements. We supplemented the photometric observations with radial velocities (RVs) from high-resolution spectroscopic observations at two epochs and with ground- and space-based photometric observations from 0.13 mu m to 22 mu m. We find that the RVs vary over similar to 6 km s(-1) between the two epochs. This is an indication of the star being in a binary orbit. A simulation of possible binary systems with the observed RVs suggests a binary period of either 39.12 days or 17.83 days with mass ratio q >= 1.0. The [Fe/H] derived using the high-resolution spectra is similar to-0.7 dex, which closely matches the cluster metallicity. The spectroscopic and photometric measurements suggest T-eff and logg of the star as 17 500 +/- 1000 K and 2.37 +/- 0.20 dex, respectively. Various PAGB evolutionary tracks on the Hertzsprung-Russell (H-R) diagram suggest a current mass of the star in the range 0.51-0.55 M-circle dot. The star is enriched with C and O abundances, showing similar CNO abundances compared to the other PAGB stars in GCs with the evidence of the third dredge-up on the AGB phase. |
