Info on Atmospheres

FITS files

The atmospheres are store in FITS binary tables with the columns:

  • Optical depth “tau”.
  • Temperature “temp” in units of K.
  • Gas pressure “pgas” in units of dyn/cm^2.
  • Density “rho” in units of g/cm^3.
  • Electron partial pressure “pe” in units of dyn/cm^2.

The header keywords are essentially the same as for the high resolution spectra, as can be found here.
