We present a new direct spectroscopic calibration for a fast estimation of the stellar metallicity [Fe/H]. These calibrations were computed using a large sample of 451 solar-type stars for which we have precise spectroscopic parameters derived from high quality spectra. The new [Fe/H] calibration is based on weak Fe I lines, which are expected to be less dependent on surface gravity and microturbulence, and require only a pre-determination of the effective temperature. This temperature can be obtained using a previously presented line-ratio calibration. We also present a simple code that uses the calibrations and procedures presented in these works to obtain both the effective temperature and the [Fe/H] estimate. The code, written in C, is freely available for the community and may be used as an extension of the ARES code. We test these calibrations for 582 independent FGK stars. We show that the code can be used as a precise and fast indicator of the spectroscopic temperature and metallicity for dwarf FKG stars with effective temperatures ranging from 4500 K to 6500 K and with [Fe/H] ranging from -0.8 dex to 0.4 dex.

Aims: We developed a new method of estimating the stellar parameters Teff, log g, [M/H], and elemental abundances. This method was implemented in a new code, SP_Ace (Stellar Parameters And Chemical abundances Estimator). This is a highly automated co
de suitable for analyzing the spectra of large spectroscopic surveys with low or medium spectral resolution (R=2,000-20,000). Methods: After the astrophysical calibration of the oscillator strengths of 4643 absorption lines covering the wavelength ranges 5212-6860AA and 8400-8924AA, we constructed a library that contains the equivalent widths (EW) of these lines for a grid of stellar parameters. The EWs of each line are fit by a polynomial function that describes the EW of the line as a function of the stellar parameters. The coefficients of these polynomial functions are stored in a library called the $GCOG$ library. SP_Ace, a code written in FORTRAN95, uses the GCOG library to compute the EWs of the lines, constructs models of spectra as a function of the stellar parameters and abundances, and searches for the model that minimizes the $chi^2$ deviation when compared to the observed spectrum. The code has been tested on synthetic and real spectra for a wide range of signal-to-noise and spectral resolutions. Results: SP_Ace derives stellar parameters such as Teff, log g, [M/H], and chemical abundances of up to ten elements for low to medium resolution spectra of FGK-type stars with precision comparable to the one usually obtained with spectra of higher resolution. Systematic errors in stellar parameters and chemical abundances are presented and identified with tests on synthetic and real spectra. Stochastic errors are automatically estimated by the code for all the parameters. A simple Web front end of SP_Ace can be found at http://dc.g-vo.org/SP_ACE, while the source code will be published soon.
Context. Stellar spectral synthesis is essential for various applications, ranging from determining stellar parameters to comprehensive stellar variability calculations. New observational resources as well as advanced stellar atmosphere modelling, ta
king three dimensional (3D) effects from radiative magnetohydrodynamics calculations into account, require a more efficient radiative transfer. Aims. For accurate, fast and flexible calculations of opacity distribution functions (ODFs), stellar atmospheres and stellar spectra we developed an efficient code building on the well-established ATLAS9 code. The new code also paves the way for an easy and fast access to different elemental compositions in stellar calculations. Methods. For the generation of ODF tables we further developed the well-established DFSYNTHE code by implementing additional functionality, and a speed-up by employing a parallel computation scheme. In addition, the line lists used can be changed from Kuruczs recent lists. In particular, we implemented the VALD3 line list. Results. A new code, the Merged Parallelised Simplified ATLAS is presented. It combines the efficient generation of ODF, atmosphere modelling and spectral synthesis in local thermodynamic equilibrium, therefore being an all-in-one code. This all-in-one code provides more numerical functionality and is substantially faster compared to other available codes. The fully portable MPS-ATLAS code is validated against previous ATLAS9 calculations, the PHOENIX code calculations, and high quality observations.
Aims. In this work we develop a technique to obtain high precision determinations of both metallicity and effective temperature of M dwarfs in the optical. Methods. A new method is presented that makes use of the information of 4104 lines in the 53
0-690 nm spectral region. It consists in the measurement of pseudo equivalent widths and their correlation with established scales of [Fe/H] and $T_{eff}$. Results. Our technique achieves a $rms$ of 0.08$pm$0.01 for [Fe/H], 91$pm$13 K for $T_{eff}$, and is valid in the (-0.85, 0.26 dex), (2800, 4100 K), and (M0.0, M5.0) intervals for [Fe/H], $T_{eff}$ and spectral type respectively. We also calculated the RMSE$_{V}$ which estimates uncertainties of the order of 0.12 dex for the metallicity and of 293 K for the effective temperature. The technique has an activity limit and should only be used for stars with $log{L_{H_{alpha}}/L_{bol}} < -4.0$. Our method is available online at url{http://www.astro.up.pt/resources/mcal}.
The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) has observed the H-band spectra of over 200 000 stars with $Rsim22 000$. The main motivation for this work is to test an alternative method to the standard APOGEE pipeline (APOGEE St
ellar Parameter and Chemical Abundances Pipeline, ASPCAP) to derive parameters in the Near-InfraRed (NIR) for FGK dwarfs. textit{iSpec} and textit{Turbospectrum} are used to generate synthetic spectra matching APOGEE observations and to determine the parameters through $chi^2$ minimization. We present spectroscopic parameters ($T_mathrm{eff}$, $[M/H]$, $log g$, $v_{mic}$) for a sample of 3748 main-sequence and subgiant FGK stars, obtained from their APOGEE H-band spectra We compare our output parameters with the ones obtained with ASPCAP for the same stellar spectra, and find that the values agree within the expected uncertainties. A comparison with the optical samples California Planet Survey, HARPS-GTO (High Accuracy Radial Velocity Planet Searcher - Guaranteed Time Observations), and PASTEL, is also available, and median differences below 10 K for $T_mathrm{eff}$ and 0.2 dex for $[M/H]$ are found. Reasons for these differences are explored. The full H-band line-list, the line selection for the synthesis and the synthesized spectra are available for download, as well as the calculated parameters and their estimated uncertainties.
Aims. The derivation of spectroscopic parameters for M dwarf stars is very important in the fields of stellar and exoplanet characterization. The goal of this work is the creation of an automatic computational tool, able to derive quickly and reliabl
y the T$_{mathrm{eff}}$ and [Fe/H] of M dwarfs by using their optical spectra, that can be obtained by different spectrographs with different resolutions. Methods. ODUSSEAS (Observing Dwarfs Using Stellar Spectroscopic Energy-Absorption Shapes) is based on the measurement of the pseudo equivalent widths for more than 4000 stellar absorption lines and on the use of the machine learning Python package scikit-learn for predicting the stellar parameters. Results. We show that our tool is able to derive parameters accurately and with high precision, having precision errors of ~30 K for T$_{mathrm{eff}}$ and ~0.04 dex for [Fe/H]. The results are consistent for spectra with resolutions between 48000 and 115000 and SNR above 20.
