Astronomers usually present errors as +-stddev on the quantities of interest, but that presupposes that the errors are uncorrelated. ... where the error bars here come from the stddev of the fluxes predicted by each DEM realization that comes out of the MCMC analysis. ... MCMC is used to draw the parameters that determine the DEM as a function of temperature, which in turn is used to calculate the intensity in each temperature bin. i.e., these are the model uncertainties. ...

... The spectrum of the brightest star, our Sun, shows several dark gaps perpendicular to the flow of it’s colours (figure 1). These so called spectral absorption lines where discovered in 1802 by the English scientist William Wollaston. ... Some stars as Pollux show a spectrum similar to that of our sun with strong Ca II and Fe II lines, others as Sirius or Vega show strong absorption lines of hydrogen, others, as Mira show very complicated spectra due to molecular absorption lines (see figure 5). ...
