MARCS model atmospheres
In this review presented at the Symposium A stellar journey in Uppsala, June 2008, I give my account of the historical development of the MARCS code from the first version published in 1975 and its premises to the 2008 grid. It is shown that the primary driver for the development team is the science that can be done with the models, and that they constantly strive to include the best possible p...
متن کاملNon-Ideal Equation of State, Refraction and Opacities in Very Cool, Helium-Rich White Dwarf Atmospheres
The atmospheres of cool, helium-rich white dwarfs constitute an exotic and poorly explored physical regime of stellar atmospheres. Under physical conditions where the temperature varies from 1000K to 10000K, the density can reach values as large as 2 g/cm, and the pressure is as high as 1 Mbar, the atmosphere is no longer an ideal gas and must be treated as a dense fluid. Helium atoms become st...
متن کاملA Few Things We Do Not Know About Stars and Model Atmospheres
We list a few things that we do not understand about stars and that most people ignore. These are all hard problems. We can learn more cosmology by working on them to reduce the systematic errors they introduce than by trying to derive cosmological results that are highly uncertain. 1. Optimism and Pessimism People sometimes complain that I am too pessimistic and that I criticize too much. In f...
متن کاملMetaconversations: Ongoing discussion about teaching research writing
This article is a follow up to an earlier publication that developed the rationale for using conversation as a metaphor to teach research writing. We presented this proposed teaching approach at several conferences, including WILU in May 2005 at Guelph, Canada. The discussions with participants in these presentations validated the tenets of the conversational metaphor for research writing. Here...
متن کاملOpen discussion about a problematical eponym.
The ‘Clara cell’ was named after the anatomist Max Clara. This cell is localised in the terminal bronchioles of the human lung. It’s function in secretion and as a potential progenitor has recently been reviewed by Reynolds and Malkinson. Briefly, the morphology is typical and has already been described by Koelliker in 1881. It is a cuboidal, non-ciliated cell with a dome-like protrusion. It co...
