Koposov 2 is an ancient, extremely metal-poor, compact stellar system best explained as a dissolving globular cluster, not a dwarf galaxy.

abstract
We have successfully ported under GNU Linux ATLAS 9, the widely used stellar atmosphere modeling code, as well as both the SYNTHE suite of programs, its ``companion'' for spectral synthesis, and WIDTH, used to derive chemical abundances from equivalent widths of spectral lines. The porting has been realized by using the Intel Fortran Compiler. Our aim was to port the codes with the minimum possible amount of modifications: full compatibility with the VMS version has been maintained, along with all the codes functionalities. Dramatic improvement in calculation speed with respect to the VMS version has been achieved. The full suite of codes is intended to be freely available to anyone.

Negative Ca II IRT residual indices in FGK stars arise mainly because synthetic photospheric templates miss chromospheric structure and NLTE effects that deepen the observed cores.
Multi-method spectroscopic analysis of 585 FGK dwarfs shows parameter scatters larger than internal errors, inducing sub-5% fractional uncertainties on derived exoplanet radius and mass.
