Overview

FastSpecFit is a stellar continuum and emission-line modeling code for DESI which is optimized for speed and simplicity; it uses physically motivated stellar population synthesis and emission-line templates to jointly model the three-camera optical spectrophotometry from DESI and the ultraviolet through infrared broadband photometry (fastspec). Alternatively, it can be used to model just the broadband photometry (fastphot), although in either case DESI redshifts are required.
