Abstract

HelioSpectrotron 5000 (HS5000) is an interactive, multi-resolution solar spectral atlas designed to facilitate direct comparison between high-resolution reference spectra and observations obtained with a wide range of ground-based instruments. Based on the Hamburg FTS atlas, the HS5000 provides both absolute intensity and continuum-normalized spectra at arbitrary spectral ranges and resolutions, as well as curated line identifications and optional telluric contamination. This framework enables rapid wavelength calibration, line identification, and context image generation.
