N2 - We report on integral field spectroscopy observations, performed with
the PPAK module of the PMAS spectrograph, covering a field-of-view of
˜74"×64" centered on the core of the galaxy cluster Abell
2218. A total of 43 objects were detected, 27 of them galaxies at the
redshift of the cluster. We deblended and extracted the integrated
spectra of each of the objects in the field using an adapted version of
tt galfit for 3D spectroscopy (tt galfit3d). We use these spectra, in
combination with morphological parameters derived from deep HST/ACS
images, to study the stellar population and evolution of galaxies in the
core of this cluster.
