High resolution spectroscopy of dwarf elliptical galaxies within the
MAGPOP-ITP collaboration
Elisa Toloba and MAGPOP-ITP collaborationAbstract
In this poster we present ISIS/WHT spectrocopic data for a sample of dwarf elliptical galaxies obtained under the MAGPOP-ITP collaboration, an observational International Time Program at La Palma Observatory devoted to understand the stellar population properties of dwarf galaxies. The spectral coverage of the observations include the optical and near-IR
regions from \sim 3500\AA to 9000\AA. Ages, metallicities and
single-element abundance ratios for our galaxy sample have been derived from analyzing their line-strength indices on the basis of new, improved stellar populations model predictions (MILES; Vazdekis et al.~2006).
