| الوصف: | Classical Cepheids (DCEPs) are important astrophysical objects not only as standard candles for the determination of the cosmic distance ladder but also as a test-bed for the stellar evolution theory, thanks to the connection between their pulsation (periods, amplitudes) and stellar (luminosity, mass, effective temperature, metallicity) parameters. We aim to unveil the nature of the Galactic DCEP OGLE-GD-CEP-0516 and other DCEPs showing an enhanced abundance of lithium in their atmospheres. We have collected a high-resolution spectrum for OGLE-GD-CEP-0516 with UVES@VLT. Accurate stellar parameters: effective temperature, gravity, micro- and macro-turbulence, radial velocity, and metal abundances were measured for this star, using spectral synthesis techniques based on LTE plane-parallel atmospheric model. We measured a chemical pattern with most elements under-abundant compared with the Sun, i.e. [Fe/H]\,=\,$-$0.54\,$\pm$\,0.16~dex, [C/H]\,=\,$-$0.45\,$\pm$\,0.05~dex, or [Mg/H]\,=\,$-$0.40\,$\pm$\,0.16~dex among others. In particular, we measured a lithium abundance A(Li)\,=\,3.06\,$\pm$\,0.10~dex for OGLE-GD-CEP-0516, which makes this object the sixth Li-rich object among the Milky Way DCEPs. Our results favour the scenario in which the six Galactic Li-rich DCEPs are first-crossing the instability strip having had slowly-rotating progenitors during their main sequence phase. This study explored the link between lithium abundance and the pulsation period in classical Cepheids. It found that brighter Cepheids, indicative of higher mass, show enhanced lithium abundance, contrary to predictions from evolutionary models considering rotation. Additionally, an analysis of lithium abundance versus [Fe/H] revealed a lack of significant correlation, contradicting expectations from galactic chemical evolution (GCE) models.
