UV and soft X-ray lines from Fe XVI observed in solar and stellar spectra
The ion Fe XVI is abundant in solar active regions and flares. Strong spectral lines from this ion have been observed over a wide wavelength range. The transitions 3s 3p and 3p 3d fall between 250 and 365Å and lines from transitions between n=3 to n=4, n=3 to n=5 fall between 30 and 80 Å. In this paper, we present distorted wave results for the electron scattering collision strengths from the g...
متن کاملExtracting Stellar Parameters from Observed Spectra: the Role of Cross-correlation and Minimum Distance Methods
One may consider cross-correlation routines applied to stellar spectra as a way to determine not only the radial velocities but also to assess the properties of stellar atmospheres. We show that this is not the case. High value of the cross-correlation coefficient between the observed and a template spectrum does not mean that the template corresponds to correct values of stellar temperature, g...
متن کاملAutomated analysis of stellar spectra
Classical model-atmosphere analyses of stellar spectra usually begin by measuring equivalent widths, and then proceed into a loop in which 1) model spectra are calculated for a set of abundances and atmospheric parameters, and 2) observed and computed spectra are compared and corrections to the abundances and parameters are inferred. Automated techniques have been developed to automate the meas...
متن کاملStellar Rotation from GAIA Spectra
Abstract. Stellar rotation influences our understanding of stellar structure and evolution, binary systems, clusters etc. and therefore the benefits of a large and highly accurate database on stellar rotation, obtained by GAIA, will be manifold. To study the prospects of GAIA measurement of projected rotational velocities vrot sin i, we use synthetic stellar spectra to simulate the determinatio...
