RCSEDv2: Processing and analysis of 4+ million galaxy spectra [IMA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/2112.04865


RCSEDv2 (https://rcsed2.voxastro.org/), the second Reference Catalog of Spectral Energy Distributions of galaxies, provides the largest homogeneously analyzed collection of optical galaxy spectra originating from several ground-based surveys collected between 1994 and 2019. The database contains astrophysical parameters obtained using the same data analysis approach from a sample of over 4 million optical spectra of galaxies and quasars: kinematics of stellar populations and ionized gas, chemical composition and age of stellar populations, gas phase metallicity. The dataset is available via Virtual Observatory access interfaces (IVOA TAP and SSAP) and through the web-site. Here we describe the RCSEDv2 spectroscopic dataset and the data processing and analysis.
