A Modern Guide to Quantitative Spectroscopy of Massive OB Stars

Simón-Díaz, Sergio

Abstract

Quantitative spectroscopy is a powerful technique from which we can extract information about the physical properties and surface chemical composition of stars. In this chapter, I guide the reader through the main ideas required to get initiated in the learning process to become an expert in the application of state-of-the-art quantitative spectroscopic techniques to the study of massive OB stars.
