The spectroscopic Hertzsprung-Russell diagram

Context. The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram is a key diagnostic diagram for stellar structure and evolution, which is now in use for more than 100 years. Aims. We introduce a new diagram which is based on the gravity-effective temperature diagram, but has various advantages. Methods. Our spectroscopic Hertzsprung-Russell (sHR) diagram shows the inverse of the flux-mean gravity versus the effective...
