Synthetic Mid-UV spectroscopic indices of stars

We explore their behavior in terms of the leading stellar parameters (Teff, logg). The overall result is that synthetic indices follow the general trends depicted by those computed from empirical databases.

Separately we also examine the index sensitivity to changes in chemical composition, an analysis only feasible under a theoretical approach. In this respect, lines indices FeI 3000, BL 3096, and MgI 2852 and the continuum index 2828/2921 are the least sensitive features, an important characteristic to be taken into account for the analyses of integrated spectra of stellar systems.
