Abstract
The atmosphere of a star presents a real challenge to the astronomer or physicist. We can observe but the thinnest skin of the star; yet from the information obtained therefrom we must deduce the star’s temperature, chemical composition, its rotation (if any), the state of agitation in its outer layers, and eventually the surface gravity, total luminosity, mass, and evolutionary stage.
