Semiempirical versus Theoretical Stellar Population Models: A Comparison with Star Clusters by Randa Asa’d, Paula R. T. Coelho, Johina M. John, Igor V. Chilingarian, Gustavo Bruzual, Stephane Charlot

“…Stellar population synthesis (SPS) models are a key tool for deriving the age, metallicity, radial velocity, and reddening of star clusters from their integrated spectra. Using a sample of 129 star clusters with high-quality spectra, we analyze the uncertainties associated with selecting an empirical versus a theoretical stellar spectral library in the SPS models. …”
