| Abstract: |
We make use of the unique character of the ESO X-shooter spectrograph
to study a sample of carbon stars from the Milky Way and the Magellanic
Clouds. We compare our observations with a recent series of
state-of-the-art synthetic spectra. The aim is to validate the models
across the broad wavelength range from ultraviolet to near-infrared,
to estimate fundamental stellar parameters, and in the end to allow
more robust constraints on stellar populations in galaxies. |
