If you use iSpec, we thank you to cite these two articles: A&A (2014) and MNRAS (2019).
Installation and usage Ask to be informed about updates!iSpec is a tool for the treatment and analysis of stellar spectra. Some of the main functionalities for spectra treatment are the following:
iSpec is capable of determining atmospheric parameters (i.e effective temperature, surface gravity, metallicity, micro/macroturbulence, rotation) and individual chemical abundances for AFGKM stars by using two different approaches: synthetic spectra fitting technique or equivalent widths method. iSpec integrates MARCS and ATLAS model atmospheres together with the following radial transfer codes:
The user-friendly interface is perfect for learning and testing. However, to take advantage of the full potential, iSpec can be used from Python 3. This is the recommended way to use iSpec for complex scientific studies, it ensures reproducibility and give access to a wider range of functionalities and options.
