High Resolution Spectral Models for Globular Clusters

This thesis covers the development of high-resolution model spectra of simple-stellar-populations (SSP) to be used in the measurement of the ages, metallicities and chemical abundances of unresolved extragalactic globular clusters (GCs). The models are compared to low- and high-resolution spectra of...
