Probing Red Giant Atmospheres with Gravitational Microlensing
Gravitational microlensing provides a new technique for studying the surfaces of distant stars. Microlensing events are detected in real time and can be followed up with precision photometry and spectroscopy. This method is particularly adequate for studying red giants in the Galactic Bulge. We show that different properties of the stellar surface can be recovered from timedependent photometry ...
متن کاملProbing Planetary Atmospheres with Stellar Occultations
Earth-based stellar occultations probe the temperature, pressure, and numberdensity profiles of planetary atmospheres in the microbar range with a vertical resolution of a few kilometers. Depending on the occultation data available for a given body and other information, the technique also allows determination of local density variations, extinction by aerosols and molecules, rotation period an...
متن کاملMARCS 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 کاملThick penumbra in a magnetostatic sunspot model
The conjecture that energy transport in sunspot penumbrae occurs through convection by an interchange of magnetic flux tubes is used in order to construct a magnetostatic model for a deep penumbra which is part of a global sunspot model. The model describes an overall mechanical equilibrium between the three stratifications: of the umbra, the penumbra, and of the solar convection zone, all of t...
متن کاملNew Grids of ATLAS9 Model Atmospheres
New opacity distribution functions (ODFs) for several metallicities have been computed. The main improvements upon previous ODFs computed by Kurucz (1990) are: (1) the replacement of the solar abundances from Anders & Grevesse (1989) with those from Grevesse & Sauval (1998); (2) the replacement of the TiO lines provided by Kurucz (1993) with the TiO lines from Schwenke (1998), as distributed by...
