Stellar mass-to-light ratios and the Tully-Fisher relation
Eric F. Bell, Roelof S. de Jong
We have used a suite of simplified spectrophotometric spiral galaxy evolution models to argue that there are substantial variations in stellar mass-to-light ratios (M/Ls) within an…
A Comparison of UIT Far-Ultraviolet and H alpha Star Formation Rates
Eric F. Bell, Robert C. Kennicutt
We have used archival ultraviolet (UV) imaging of 50 nearby star-forming galaxies obtained with the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UIT) to derive integrated near-UV and far-UV magn…
The Properties of Spiral Galaxies in Semi-Analytic Galaxy Formation Models
Eric F. Bell, Carlton Baugh, Shaun Cole +2
We examine the present-day galaxy disk colors and star formation rates (SFRs) in the semi-analytic model of Cole et al. (2000). We find that the fiducial model is a good match to K…
Comparing Ultraviolet and H alpha Star Formation Rates
Eric F. Bell, Robert C. Kennicutt
We have used a sample of 43 star-forming galaxies imaged in the far-ultraviolet (FUV) by the UIT supplemented with 33 galaxies observed by FAUST, to explore the consistency of UV a…
Stellar Mass-to-Light Ratios and the Tully-Fisher relation
Roelof S. de Jong, Eric F. Bell
We use spiral galaxy evolution models to argue that there are substantial variations in stellar mass-to-light ratio (M/L) within and among galaxies. Our models show a strong correl…
Exploring the evolution of spiral galaxies
Eric F. Bell, Richard G. Bower
We have constructed a family of simple models for spiral galaxy evolution to allow us to investigate observational trends in star formation history with galaxy parameters. The mode…
