Turbospectrum: Code for spectral synthesis

Abstract: Turbospectrum is a 1D LTE spectrum synthesis code which covers 600 molecules, is fast with many lines, and uses the treatment of line broadening described by Barklem & O’Mara (1998).

Version 12.1 has been released on August 3, 2012.
see http://www.graal.univ-montp2.fr/hosted/plez/DATA/Turbospectrum-v12.1.tar.gz
Still no user manual, but a trimmed script to run the code.
If you download the code let me know, and I will keep you informed of updates.
I have a number of molecular line lists that I provide upon request.
Turbospectrum is based on the same routines and input data as the MARCS code (Gustafsson et al. 2008, http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2008A%26A...486..951G). It allows the computation of flux or intensity spectra for stars of type F and cooler.
