Reconstructing the Star Formation Histories of Galaxies

Uta Fritze, Thomas Lilly

We present a methodological study to find out how far back and to what precision star formation histories of galaxies can be reconstructed from CMDs, from integrated spectra and Li…

Analysing Globular Cluster observations - Models and Analysis Tools for Lick/IDS indices

Thomas Lilly, Uta Fritze-v. Alvensleben

We have extended our evolutionary synthesis code, GALEV, to include Lick/IDS absorption-line indices for both simple and composite stellar population models (star clusters and gala…

Star Cluster Analyses from Multi-Band Photometry: the Key Advantage of SALT's U-band Sensitivity

Uta Fritze - v. Alvensleben, Polychronis Papaderos, Peter Anders +3

Conventionally, CMD analyses of nearby star clusters are based on observations in 2 passbands. They are plagued by considerable degeneracies between age, metallicity, distance (and…

Deriving star formation histories from integrated light: Colors and indices

Thomas Lilly, Uta Fritze-v. Alvensleben

We present results of a detailed study aiming at understanding to what precision star formation histories (SFHs) can be determined for distant galaxies observable in integrated lig…

The SFH of the LMC: The CMD approach vs. integrated colors and spectra

Thomas Lilly, Uta Fritze-v. Alvensleben

We present results of a study aiming at shedding light on the specific advantages and limitations of methods to derive star formation histories (SFH) in galaxies using resolved ste…
