This is the current version of lecture notes for the Utrecht third-year astronomy course
on stellar atmospheres. The main topic treated in this 30-hour course is the classical
theory of radiative transfer for explaining stellar spectra. The reason to emphasize this
topic over the many newer subjects of astrophysical interest o ered by stellar atmospheres is that it needs relatively much attention to be mastered. Radiative transfer in gaseous media that are neither optically thin nor completely opaque is a key part of astrophysics, but it is not a transparent subject.
This course requires familiarity with the basic quantities and processes of radiative transfer. At Utrecht I treat these in a more basic course that follows the fi rst chapter of
Rybicki and Lightman (1979) and is summarized in Chapter 2 here. The present lecture notes are roughly a middle road between Mihalas (1970) and the books by Novotny (1973) and B?ohm-Vitense (1989), at about the level of Gray (1992) but emphasizing radiative transfer rather than observational techniques and data interpretation.
