The IACOB project: A grid-based automatic tool for the quantitative spectroscopic analysis of O-stars

Solar and Stellar Astrophysics 2015-06-03 v1

Abstract

We present the IACOB grid-based automatic tool for the quantitative spectroscopic analysis of O-stars. The tool consists of an extensive grid of FASTWIND models, and a variety of programs implemented in IDL to handle the observations, perform the automatic analysis, and visualize the results. The tool provides a fast and objective way to determine the stellar parameters and the associated uncertainties of large samples of O-type stars within a reasonable computational time.
