A high resolution version of the spectrum of the prototypical cool giant star Arcturus, also known as alpha Boo (spectral type K1 III). This image was created from a digital atlas observed with the Coude Feed telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory, near Tucson, Arizona. The images shown here were created to mimic an echelle spectrum, with wavelength increasing from left to right along each strip, and from bottom to top. Each of the 50 slices covers 60 angstroms, for a complete spectrum across the visual range from 4000 to 7000 angstroms.
