IDL based SED fitting code for stellar templates V1.1 Ivano Baronchelli 2018 BESTFIT is an IDL based function that can be used to fit photometric data using a collection of template models of stellar spectra. The method used is based on the χ 2 minimization technique. Chosing among a collection of models (internal or supplied by the users), BESTFIT computes the spectral model that better fits the input photometric data. BESTFIT also predicts the expected flux in a users-selected photometric filter (or at a given wavelength). This can be useful in all those cases in which a rough photometrical calibration of the fluxes in a given band is needed or when the user wants to check the photometric calibration in a given band. The parameters and filters files look similar to those used by the hyperz software (Bolzonella+2000). This should make the use easier for people that previously used hyperz.
