Section of the FEROS Ganymede spectrum used as a solar template. The thin line shows the spectrum at its original resolution (R ~ 48,000) and the thick line represents the version that was degraded to the MARVELS resolution (R ~ 12,000). The most prominent individual lines are identified by their chemical species. Three spectral indices dominated by neutral iron-peak species and their respective wavelength intervals are shown as examples of the selection procedure. The other indices are distributed throughout the full wavelength range used in the analysis (5100–5590 Å).
