Scientific paper

A minimum-gradient model is presented to complement a maximum-gradient model (Zwaan, 1974). Both models are compatible with published continuum intensities and within constraints on the temperature gradient; both are adjusted to an effective temperature of 4000 K. In order to explain the visual intensities, the minimum-gradient model requires an additional 'line-haze' opacity which is only slightly smaller than in the maximum-gradient model. It is shown that various published models are not compatible with plausible constraints on the temperature gradient.
