Abstract
Stellar atmospheres are examined, giving attention to the transfer of radiation, the physical properties of gases, model atmospheres, and questions of line absorption in stellar atmospheres. Observational data are considered together with the equations for the stellar interior and aspects of stellar evolution. The calculation of model atmospheres and interiors is also discussed, taking into account numerical integration, a model solar atmosphere, and model stellar interiors.
