Using the volume-limited statistically-complete sample of nearby galaxies LVL to study galaxy formation.
Fitting SED from UV to far-IR with CIGALE
Table of LVL Galaxies and some SED Results
AAS 233 iPoster Link
Plans and Goals:
- Fit SED in radial bins for each galaxy to explore ages as a function of radius
- Use dwarf FIRE simulations for comparison with the LVL dwarfs (or even full LVL sample)
- Look at age and metallicity gradients → inside-out formation for normal galaxies, outside-in for dwarfs?
- Where does the turn-over from dwarf outside-in to the inside-out occur?
- Possible spectroscopy with WIRO or APO
Progress:
- CIGALE models finished
- Dust masses given to Leslie Hunt
- Galaxy properties have been derived
