Abstract

We present a complete atlas of optical spectra of white-dwarf stars. Spectra for all major spectral classes and subclasses are illustrated, and the variation of the dominant spectral features as a function of effective temperature and abundance is documented. We present, as well, spectra of several peculiar or rare types of degenerate stars.
