You have a copy?
I just scrolled through it at the Internet archive and realized that though the math will be beyond me, I would certainly find poetic potential in the spectrophotometric and astrophysical lingo, and the charts can be interesting too.
Somewhere I do. I have boxes of books packed up in storage until I have an in-home library one day. Her dissertation, actually, all of her papers, used to be online in the Harvard archives ( I think ).

Barnes and Noble has STELLAR ATMOSPHERES available, but that seems to be a subsection of THE STARS OF HIGH LUMINOSITY.
I may have to resort to amazon, except that I try to boycott them because Bezos.
I'm going to check independents next.

I don't know if you'll be able to find anything here. There are reference links at the bottom which may serve as breadcrumbs to what you're seeking. I know her work used to be online because it's where I first discovered her.

Oh thank you!
I meant to ask about the Harvard library, and I will check their Publishing and bookstore links. 🙏

Tear Bottle: In ancient Greece and Rome, a small glass or earthen vessel filled with the tears of those who weep and left in the graves as a present for the dead.

On Facebook I get posts from The Victorian Book of The Dead, and The Thanatos Archive, both of which have peculiar content regarding mourning traditions of yesteryear. Sad, but fascinating.
