Stellar populations and their kinematics from high and medium resolution spectra: mixed inversions

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We present inversion techniques aiming at recovering the stellar content (age, metallicity, extinction) and kinematics of a stellar population from its absorption line spectrum. These techniques use new synthetic high resolution spectra produced by PEGASE_HR and minimization algorithms. Application to SDSS data and to a simulated disc-bulge system are presented as examples.
