Optical stellar spectroscopy

I. Reduction of raw spectra

to be updated.

II. Deriving stellar parameters

1. Warm-up — some background knowledge about stellar spectra
2. Doppler effect — measuring stellar radial velocity
3. Teff, logg & [M/H] — fundamental stellar atmospheric parameters
4. v sini profile
5. Basics
   • Linux + Anaconda3 + Jupyter-notebook/Jupyter-Lab
   • Numerical computing (cross-correlation, non-linear regression, etc)
6. Required packages: laspec & astroslam
   • pip install laspec or pip install -U git+git://github.com/hypergravity/laspec
   • pip install astroslam or pip install -U git+git://github.com/hypergravity/astroslam

Practice include

• CCF
• SLAM
• Model Fitting
• Scratch (figures in slides)
