A comparison of synthetic and observed spectra for G-K dwarfs using arti

Abstract

A library of synthetic spectra, based on Kurucz model atmospheres, has been used to compare the spectroscopic observations in thewavelength range 4850-5384 A by using statistical and supervised arti cial neural network methods. The effective temperatures assigned by these methods for G-K dwarfs are compared with those given in Gray and Corbally (1994) and found to be closely matching their calibration curve. This result provides a promising new technique for determination of fundamental stellar atmospheric parameters on the basis of comparison between the model generated synthetic spectra and observed stellar spectra.
