Line formation in solar granulation. I. Fe line shapes, shifts and asymmetries
Realistic ab-initio 3D, radiative-hydrodynamical convection simulations of the solar granulation have been applied to Fe i and Fe ii line formation. In contrast...
Line formation in solar granulation. IV. [O I], O I and OH lines and the photospheric O abundance
The solar photospheric oxygen abundance has been determined from [O I], O I, OH vibration-rotation and OH pure rotation lines by means of a realistic time...
Line formation in solar granulation. VI. [C I], C I, CH and C2 lines and the photospheric C abundance
The solar photospheric carbon abundance has been determined from [C I], C I, CH vibration-rotation, CH A-X electronic and C2 Swan electronic lines by means of a...
Line Formation Theory for the Multiterm Atom with Hyperfine Structure in a Magnetic Field
Within the framework of the quantum theory of polarized line formation, in the limit of complete frequency redistribution and of the collisionless regime, we...
Line Shape Effects on Intensity Measurements of Solar Features: Brightness Correction to SOHO MDI Continuum Images
Continuum intensity observations obtained with the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) on board the SOHO mission provide long time series of filtergrams that are...
Line-of-sight velocity distributions of elliptical galaxies from collisionless mergers
We analyse the skewness of the line-of-sight velocity distributions in model elliptical galaxies built through collisionless galaxy mergers. We build the models...
Line-profile variations of the double-lined spectroscopic binary kappa Scorpii
We present a total time series of high signal-to-noise, high-resolution spectra of the SiIII lambda 4552.6, lambda 4567.8 and lambda 4574.8 Å lines of the fast...
Linear and non-linear limb-darkening coefficients for LTE model atmospheres.
Linear, quadratic, and square root limb-darkening coefficients have been computed by means of least squares fits to model atmospheres by Kurucz (1991) with the...
