Stellar Chromospheres

open access: yesScience, 1966
Besides being of intrinsic interest, these outer stellar envelopes provide very useful astrophysical tools.

Stellar Model Chromospheres and Spectroscopic Diagnostics

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2017
The discovery of exoplanets and the desire to understand their atmospheric chemical composition and habitability provides a new rationale for understanding the radiation from X-rays to radio wavelengths emitted by their host stars. Semiempirical models of stellar atmospheres that include accurate treatment of radiative transfer of all important atoms ...

A phenomenological interpretation of stellar chromospheres

Astrophysics and Space Science, 1986
An attempt is made to develop a phenomenological interpretation of stellar chromospheres. The following problems are examined: observed emission powers of ‘magnesium’ chromospheres on stars based on the ultraviolet doublet, 2800 Mgii, observations; dependence of chromosphere emission on spectral and luminosity classes; stellar chromospheres as an ...

Stellar chromospheres and coronae

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 1981
The basic structural features of the solar chromosphere and corona are identified either with physical properties of the plasma or with properties of the energy input. It is argued that those properties identified with plasma physics should be relatively invariant whereas those identified with the energy input should vary from star to star.

Stellar model chromospheres. IX - Chromospheric activity in dwarf stars

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 1979
High-resolution Ca II K line profiles are used to model the upper photospheres and lower chromospheres of eight main-sequence stars ranging in spectral type from F0 to M0 and exhibiting different degrees of chromospheric activity. The model chromospheres are studied as a function of spectral type and activity for stars of similar spectral type in order

Detection of mass loss in stellar chromospheres

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 1980
IUE observations of 47 cool giants have been made in a search for the onset of expansion in the Mg II h and k emission cores. It is found that, in a statistical sense, the longward emission peak becomes dominant above a velocity dividing line in the H-R diagram, which lies close to a temperature dividing line reported by Linsky and Haisch (1979).

PREDICTED ULTRAVIOLET SPECTRA FROM STELLAR CHROMOSPHERES

Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer, 1968
Abstract Perhaps the most tangible evidence of the existence and structure of postulated stellar chromospheres of otherwise relatively cool stars would be the detection of an intense ultraviolet spectrum. The solar case for which a variety of measurements is available now reveals that the observed spectrum depends in a very complex and not thoroughly
