An Atlas of Southern MK Standards From 5800 to 10,200 Å

An atlas of stellar spectra covering the wavelength range from 5800 to 10,200 Å is presented of 126 southern MK standard stars, covering the luminosity classes I, III, and V. Some peculiar stars are included for comparison purposes. The spectra were obtained at a resolution of 4.3 Å per pixel using...

Summary:An atlas of stellar spectra covering the wavelength range from 5800 to 10,200 Å is presented of 126 southern MK standard stars, covering the luminosity classes I, III, and V. Some peculiar stars are included for comparison purposes. The spectra were obtained at a resolution of 4.3 Å per pixel using a Cassegrain-mounted Boiler and Chivens spectrograph equipped with a Reticon detector. The quality and utility of the data are discussed and examples of the spectra are presented. The atlas is available in digital format through the NSSDC.
