Characterization of exoplanet hosts

Spectroscopic analysis of exoplanet hosts and the stellar sample from which they are drawn provides abundances and other properties that quantitively constrain models of planet formation. The program Spectroscopy Made Easy (SME) determines stellar parameters by fitting observed spectra, though line...
