Abstract

The spectra of a number of reportedly sharp-line B, A and F stars have been observed in a 60-Å window with a resolving power of 120 000. As a first step in analysis of these data, the spectra have been synthesized to see how well simple models fit. The information obtained from both successful modelling and from discrepant fits is discussed.
