E+A galaxies in the near-IR: Broad band photometry
We present near-IR photometry of a selected sample of southern hemisphere E+A galaxies. The sample includes 50 galaxies from nearby (z ∼ 0.05) and distant (z ∼ 0.3) clusters as well as E+A galaxies from the field (z ∼ 0.1). We also observed 13 normal early-type galaxies from the field and from clusters to be compared with the E+A sample. The photometry includes J , H and Ks apparent magnitudes ...
متن کاملPredicted HST FOC and broad band colours for young and intermediate Simple Stellar Populations
This paper presents theoretical HST and broad band colours from population synthesis models based on an homogeneous set of stellar evolutionary tracks as computed under canonical (no overshooting) assumptions, covering the range of cluster ages from t = 8 Myr to t = 5 Gyr for three different metallicities (Z = 0.02, 0.006, and 0.001). Statistical fluctuations in the cluster population have been...
متن کاملPredicting spectral features in galaxy spectra from broad-band photometry
We explore the prospects of predicting emission line features present in galaxy spectra given broad-band photometry alone. There is a general consent that colours, and spectral features, most notably the 4000 Å break, can predict many properties of galaxies, including star formation rates and hence they could infer some of the line properties. We argue that these techniques have great prospects...
متن کاملRecovering Stellar Population Properties and Redshifts from Broad-band Photometry of Simulated Galaxies: Lessons for Sed Modeling
We present a detailed analysis of our ability to determine stellar masses, ages, reddening and extinction values, and star formation rates of high-redshift galaxies by modeling broad-band SEDs with stellar population synthesis. In order to do so, we computed synthetic optical-to-NIR SEDs for model galaxies taken from hydrodynamical merger simulations placed at redshifts 1.5 ≤ z ≤ 2.9. Viewed un...
متن کاملNovel Methods for Predicting Photometric Redshifts from Broad Band Photometry using Virtual Sensors
We calculate photometric redshifts from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Main Galaxy Sample, The Galaxy Evolution Explorer All Sky Survey, and The Two Micron All Sky Survey using two new training–set methods. We utilize the broadband photometry from the three surveys alongside Sloan Digital Sky Survey measures of photometric quality and galaxy morphology. Our first training–set method draws from th...
