A Robust Age Indicator for Old Stellar Populations
We derive new spectral Hγ index definitions that are robust age indicators for old and relatively old stellar populations and therefore have great potential for solving the age-metallicity degeneracy of galaxy spectra. To study this feature as a function of age, metallicity, and resolution, we have used a new spectral synthesis model that predicts
