We present results of spectroscopic observations of selected stars
in the southern open cluster NGC 6134. We have determined the
rotational velocities of the six known δ Scuti stars in
NGC 6134 as well as several other non-variable stars
with similar colour temperature in order to investigate
if and variability is somehow connected: we
find no such correlation. We also compare the distribution
of of δ Scuti stars and non-variable stars
with four other well-studied open clusters to look for any
systematic behaviour, but we find no conclusive evidence
for and variability to be connected.
We have also used the spectra to carry out an abundance
analysis of the δ Scuti stars in NGC 6134 to confirm the
high metal content of the cluster. We find
which is in agreement with the
result obtained from Strömgren photometry.
We also present photometry of the cluster, but we find no
chemical peculiar stars based on this index.
