We have re-reduced all spectra from the UVES-POP stellar spectral library using the version 5.5.7 of the UVES pipeline and an algorithm we designed, which allows us to remove ripples in regions where echelle orders are stitched. These…

We present a homogeneous set of stellar atmospheric parameters Teff, log g, [Fe/H] for MILES, a new spectral stellar library covering the range 3525 - 7500 angstrom at 2.3 angstrom (FWHM) spectral resolution. The library consists of 985…

Aims. We provide an easy-to-use full-spectrum fitting package and explore its applications to (i) the determination of the stellar atmospheric parameters and (ii) the study of the history of stellar populations. Methods. We developed ULySS,…
