Spectral Energy Distribution of T Tauri stars

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the spectral energy distribution of T Tauri stars, specifically analyzing the second graph from the provided link. The green plot in this graph represents the fit to observed spectral lines, which are indicated by the small black dots. This analysis is crucial for understanding the characteristics of T Tauri stars and their flared disk models.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of spectral energy distribution
  • Familiarity with T Tauri stars
  • Knowledge of graph interpretation in astrophysics
  • Basic concepts of flared disk models
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the spectral energy distribution of T Tauri stars
  • Study the methods for fitting observed spectral lines
  • Explore the characteristics of flared disk models in astrophysics
  • Examine the implications of spectral analysis in stellar formation
USEFUL FOR

Astronomers, astrophysics students, and researchers interested in the spectral analysis of T Tauri stars and their formation processes.

On page 5 of the link http://www.maths.qmul.ac.uk/~rpn/ASTM735/Week9-powerpoint.pdf , there are 2 graphs. I'm referring to the 2nd graph (the one with the flared disk fit). What is the green plot supposed to represent?

That is the fit to observed spectral lines - which are the little black dots.
