3D Model Atmospheres of Red Giant Stars

Hans-Gunter Ludwig, Matthias Steffen

Published 2011-08-23Version 1

We provide a brief overview of the modelling of the atmospheres of red giant stars with the 3D radiation-hydrodynamics code CO5BOLD. We emphasize aspects where 3D modelling provides additional insight beyond standard hydrostatic 1D models, and comment on present modelling challenges.
