Interpreting Astronomical Spectra D. Emerson Institute for
Astronomy, Department of Physics and Astronomy, The University of
Edingurgh "Interpreting Astronomical Spectra" describes how
physical conditions such as temperature, density and composition
can be obtained from the spectra of a broad range of astronomical
environments ranging from the cold interstellar medium to very hot
coronal gas and from stellar atmospheres to quasars. In this book
the author has succeeded in providing a coherent and integrated
approach to the interpretation of astronomical spectroscopy,
placing the emphasis on the physical understanding of spectrum
formation rather than on instrumental considerations. MKS units and
consistent symbols are employed throughout so that the fundamental
ideas common to diverse environments are made clear and the
importance of different temperature ranges and densities can be
seen. Aimed at senior undergraduates and graduates studying
physics, astronomy and astrophysics, this book will also appeal to
the professional astronomer.
