HET603-M05A01: Colours and Spectral Types: Learning about stars
... In this Activity we will learn about the enormous amount of information contained in the spectra of stars. In particular, we will discuss: • the three types of specra - continuous, absorption and emission; and • what spectra can tell us about the properties of stars by studying: – the spectral line ...
