Stellar evolution model databases, spanning a wide ranges of masses and initial chemical compositions, are nowadays a major tool to study Galactic and extragalactic stellar populations. We describe here the current status of the widely used BaSTI (A Bag of Stellar Tracks and Isochrones) database. We focus in particular on the efforts devoted to port BaSTI to a VO-compliant environment, the BaSTI Web portal that enables users to retrieve data tables and run a range of web tools to facilitate the theoretical analysis of observations, and planned future developments within the framework of the Italian Virtual Observatory project.

Abstract
Stellar evolution model databases, spanning a wide ranges of masses and initial chemical compositions, are nowadays a major tool to study Galactic and extragalactic stellar populations. We describe here the current status of the widely used BaSTI (A Bag of Stellar Tracks and Isochrones) database. We focus in particular on the efforts devoted to port BaSTI to a VO-compliant environment, the BaSTI Web portal that enables users to retrieve data tables and run a range of web tools to facilitate the theoretical analysis of observations, and planned future developments within the framework of the Italian Virtual Observatory project.File in questo prodotto:
