  • What to do when high-resolution spectroscopic information

    is missing ?

    Simply ignore missing data !

    Are lower-resolution studies useless ?

    What about error bars !

  • Procedure

    Normal random variables are associated to lineparameters (and numerically simulated)

    Statistical properties of the corresponding random function associated to the absorption coefficient are

    deduced from the (numerical) analysis of histograms built at each spectral elements of the window
