The host star flux of the A0 star in both LTE (blue) and when accounting for several atoms in NLTE (orange, see text) using the LTE temperature structure. Note that many spectral lines are considerably deeper in the NLTE case, leading to less flux absorbed in the upper atmosphere of the planet by species that absorb at those wavelengths.
