HR-pyPopStar: New SSP models of very high spectral resolution
Abstract
The observed high resolution spectra from the last generation of instruments demand a theoretical basis for the interpretation of the physical parameters of the stellar populations, which is producing a trending need of high resolution spectra of Single Stellar Populations (SSPs). We have developed pyPopStar, a python-based updated and modern version of the PopStar code to compute SSPs. Our code uses high resolution synthetic stellar libraries for main sequence, post-AGB, planetary nebulae and Wolf-Rayet stars, as well as computes the nebular continuum spectra associated to the SSP in a self-consistent way combining the most precise atomic data and the number of ionizing photons (Q) of our computed stellar spectra.
