    Surface temperature and synthetic spectral energy distributions for rotationally deformed stars 
    Deupree, Robert G. (Robert Gaston), 1946-; Lovekin, C. C.; Short, C. Ian (Christopher Ian), 1965- (American Astronomical SocietyIOP Publishing, 2006-05-20)
    Extreme deformation of a stellar surface, such as that produced by rapid rotation, causes the surface temperature and gravity to vary significantly with latitude. Thus, the spectral energy distribution (SED) of a nonspherical ...
