+Phoenix Models

+The ``$PYSYN_CDBS/grid/phoenix`` directory contains models provided by
+`F. Allard et al. <http://perso.ens-lyon.fr/france.allard/>`_
+and can be found in the
+`Star, Brown Dwarf, and Planet Simulator <http://phoenix.ens-lyon.fr/simulator/index.faces>`_. They use static, spherical symmetric, 1D simulations to completely
+describe the atmospheric emission spectrum. The models account for the
+formation of molecular bands, such as those of water vapor, methane, or
+titanium dioxide, solving for the transfer equation over more than 20,000
+wavelength points on average, producing synthetic spectra with 2 Angstroms
+resolution. The line selection is repeated at each iteration of the model
+until it has converged and the thermal structure obtained. The models here
+are calculated with a cloud model, valid across the entire parameter range.
+See
+`Phoenix models README file <http://www.stsci.edu/hst/observatory/crds/SIfileInfo/pysynphottables/index_phoenix_models_html>`_
+for more details.
+The atlas data files are organized in a similar naming convention as
+:ref:`pysynphot-appendixa-kurucz1993`, and are easily accessible using
+`~pysynphot.catalog.Icat` (also see :ref:`pysynphot-spec-atlas`).
