| Summary: |
| We present a theoretical stellar spectral library covering the wavelength interval from 912 to 7000 Å. The library is divided into two sets of spectra computed independently. Part I is in the Far UV-Blue spectral region from 912 to 4500 Å at inverse spectral resolution R = 50,000, while Part II covers the range 3500-7000 Å at R = 500,000. Calculations of both sets were based on the SYNTHE series of codes developed by R.L. Kurucz. The model grid spans metallicity from [M/H] = -2.0 to +0.5, and consider both dwarf and (super)-giant stars (log g up to 5.0 dex). The temperature range goes from 4,000 K to 50,000 K. Our library is currently the most extended one available in the literature at such high resolution, and is especially useful for population synthesis studies in order to address key questions on the overall evolutionary properties of stellar systems. |
