SSPs: line-strengths, magnitudes, colours, mass-to-light ratios, SBFs

Absorption line-strengths computed on the basis of empirical fitting functions:

Line-strengths are computed for all the SSPs described in this Table. However the age ranges (in Gyr) where these predictions are safe (since do not require many extrapolations of the empirical fitting functions employed by the models) are listed below:
 

 

[M/H] = -2.32 [M/H] = -1.71

[M/H] = -1.31

[M/H] = -0.71

[M/H] = -0.40

[M/H] = 0.0

[M/H] = +0.22

The first column of these files contain two letters identifying the IMF type: UN (unimodal), BI (bimodal), KU (Kroupa Universal) and KB (Kroupa Revised). The second column indicates the IMF slope (does not apply for the models calculated with Kroupa IMFs). The third column indicates the age (in Gyr). The information per column is the following: (1)IMF type, (2)IMF slope, (3)[M/H], (4)Age, (5)CN1, (6)CN2, (7)Ca4227, (8)G-band, (9)Fe4383, (10)Ca4455, (11)Fe4531, (12)Fe4668, (13)Hβ, (14)Fe5015, (15)Mg1, (16)Mg2, (17)Mgb, (18)Fe5270, (19)Fe5335, (20)Fe5406, (21)Fe5709, (22)Fe5782,  (23)NaD, (24)TiO1, (25)TiO2, (26)HδA, (27)HγA, (28)HδF, (29)HγF, (30)D4000, (31)CaT*, (32)PaT,(33)CaT

HEADER_ssp_li includes the appropriate header for these files.

Magnitudes, colours and mass-to-light ratios:

Magnitudes, colours and mass-to-light ratios are provided for the SSPs specified in this Table. For computing the mass-to-light ratios we take into account the remnants and the mass loss during the latest phases of the stellar evolution. It is also important to note that the adopted lower and upper mass cutoffs for all the IMFs are 0.1 and 100 Mo respectively (see Notes), and the faintest star is 0.1 Mo. These model predictions can be obtained from the following files:

HEADER_ssp_phot includes the appropriate header for these files.

Surface brightness fluctuations:

Surface brightness fluctuations model predictions for ages larger than 4 Gyr (for younger ages the predictions are uncertain due to the large contribution of the AGB evolutionary phase) can be obtained from the following files:
