Abstract:BONIFACIO: Dr. Adelman, you said that a problem for spectral synthesis analysis is the lack of an ab initio method to fix microturbulence. I totally agree. You also said that you have some ideas of how to get around the problem. I would like to know what they are. ADELMAN: Scott Roby, Chuck Cowley and I have discussed the possibility of using some spectral windows which include a range of clean Fe I or Fe II lines, say. We could compute synthetic spectra with a range of microturbulences. For the correct microt… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
