It is characterized by 3500K≤Teff≤47500K, 0.0≤logg≤5.0, -3.0≤[M/H]≤+0.5, 0≤Vrot≤500km/s, ξ=2km/s. The whole grid of spectra is calculated for resolving powers 8500, 11500 and 20000. A section of the grid is also computed for [α/Fe]=+0.4 and for microturbulent velocities 0 and 4km/s. The library covers the wavelength ranges and resolutions of the two ambitious spectroscopic surveys by the ground experiment RAVE and the space mission GAIA. Cross-sections across the multi-dimensional data-cube are used to illustrate the behaviour of the strongest spectral lines.
