A.7 Galactic Atlas

---

This atlas consists of model spectra of the Orion Nebula and of the NGC 7009 planetary Nebula.

The continuum of the Orion Nebula's template contains the nebular contribution plus a combination of Kurucz model atmospheres to simulate the stellar contribution. The fluxes of the UV, optical and near-IR emission lines from different sources are also incorporated into the template (J.R. Walsh, private comm.).

The continuum of the planetary nebula has a nebular component and a hot stellar component simulated by an 80000K black body. The fluxes of the UV, optical and near-IR emission lines, from different sources, are also incorporated into the template (J.R. Walsh, private comm.).

The spectra are located in the crgrid$galactic/ directory.
