摘要：Context.The surface structures and dynamics of cool stars are characterised by the presence of convective motions and turbulent flows which shape the emergent spectrum.Aims.We used realistic three-dimensional (3D) radiative hydrodynamical simulations from the STAGGER-grid to calculate synthetic spectra with the radiative transfer codeOPTIM3Dfor stars with different stellar parameters to predict photometric colours and convective velocity shifts.Methods.We calculated spectra from 1000 to 200 000 Å with a constant resolving power ofλ∕Δλ= 20 000 and from 8470 and 8710 Å (GaiaRadial Velocity Spectrometer – RVS – spectral range) with a constant resolving power ofλ∕Δλ= 300 000.Results.We used synthetic spectra to compute theoretical colours in the Johnson-CousinsUBV(RI)C, SDSS, 2MASS,Gaia, SkyMapper, Strömgren systems, and HST-WFC3. Our synthetic magnitudes are compared with those obtained using 1D hydrostatic models. We showed that 1D versus 3D differences are limited to a small percent except for the narrow filters that span the optical and UV region of the spectrum. In addition, we derived the effect of the convective velocity fields on selected Fe I lines. We found the overall convective shift for 3D simulations with respect to the reference 1D hydrostatic models, revealing line shifts of between −0.235 and +0.361 km s−1. We showed a net correlation of the convective shifts with the effective temperature: lower effective temperatures denote redshifts and higher effective temperatures denote blueshifts. We conclude that the extraction of accurate radial velocities from RVS spectra need an appropriate wavelength correction from convection shifts.Conclusions.The use of realistic 3D hydrodynamical stellar atmosphere simulations has a small but significant impact on the predicted photometry compared with classical 1D hydrostatic models for late-type stars. We make all the spectra publicly available for the community through the POLLUX database.
