SpecMatch-Emp extracts the fundamental properties of a star (effective temperature, radius, and metallicity) by comparing a target star's spectrum to a library of spectra from stars with known properties. The spectral library comprises high-resolution, high signal-to-noise observed spectra from Keck/HIRES for 404 touchstone stars with well-determined stellar parameters derived from interferometry, asteroseismology, and spectrophotometry. The code achieves accuracies of 100K, 15%, and 0.09 dex in Teff, Rstar, and [Fe/H] respectively for FGKM dwarfs.
