How to Measure Galaxy Star Formation Histories II: Nonparametric Models

Joel Leja, Adam C. Carnall, Benjamin D. Johnson +2

Nonparametric star formation histories (SFHs) have long promised to be the `gold standard' for galaxy spectral energy distribution (SED) modeling as they are flexible enough to des…

How to measure galaxy star-formation histories I: Parametric models

A. C. Carnall, J. Leja, B. D. Johnson +3

Parametric models for galaxy star-formation histories (SFHs) are widely used, though they are known to impose strong priors on physical parameters. This has consequences for measur…

The VANDELS ESO public spectroscopic survey

R. J. McLure, L. Pentericci, A. Cimatti +92

VANDELS is a uniquely-deep spectroscopic survey of high-redshift galaxies with the VIMOS spectrograph on ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT). The survey has obtained ultra-deep optica…
