Full spectral fitting of stellar population models for studies of galaxy evolution

In this work we present a new full spectral fitting code called FIREFLY. It is a c2-minimisation code that obtains thousands of spectral fits in order to build probability distribution functions of stellar population properties, and includes an innovative method to treat dust attenuation. We use the...
