Poster Title: An interactive photometry simulator for stellar population studies

Abstract: I will present an updated version of the BaSeL Interactive Server already implemented at the Coimbra Observatory (http://www.astro.mat.uc.pt/BaSeL). This new version now allows a more direct interface between the model atmosphere spectra and the stellar tracks and isochrones. Using a databse of different stellar evolution model and spectral libaries compiled from the literature, this photometry simulator provides multi-colour photometry and synthetic colour-magnitude diagrams in several photometric systems. An user-friendly web interface allows an easy way to select the models and the preferred ranges of stellar parameters (Z, Y, Fe/H, age, Teff, logg...). This web interface should provide a valuable tool to study the observed stellar populations, by comparing model predictions with observations.
