Stellar evolution carries a star through the Hertzsprung-Russell-Diagram. For a given mass, M. one obtains both luminosity, L, and radius, R, as functions of time, t. From these parameters we determine the surface gravity and the effective temperature as functions of t:

g(t),Teff(t).

It is these two parameters which determine the properties of the outermost layers of a star, the atmosphere and the top of the hydrogen convective zone.
