    Short, C. Ian (Christopher Ian), 1965-; Campbell, Eamonn A. (American Astronomical Society, 2013-06-01)
    We extend the grid of non-LTE (NLTE) models presented in Paper II to explore variations in abundance pattern in two ways: (1) the adoption of the Asplund et al. (GASS10) abundances, (2) for stars of metallicity, [M/H], ...
