We present our NextGen Model Atmosphere grid for low mass
stars to effective temperatures larger than . These LTE models
are calculated with the same basic model assumptions and input physics as
the VLMS part of the NextGen grid so that the complete grid can be used,
e.g., for consistent stellar evolution calculations and for internally
consistent analysis of cool star spectra. This grid is also the starting
point for a large grid of detailed NLTE model atmospheres for dwarfs and
giants (Hauschildt et al, in preparation). The models were calculated from
to
(in steps of
) for
(in steps of 0.5) and metallicities of
.
We discuss the results of the model calculations and compare our results to the Kurucz 1994 grid. Some comparisons to standard stars like Vega and the Sun are presented and compared with detailed NLTE calculations.
