3.3.18.2 : SFH_Times_MR and SFH_Times_MRII

These tabels contain the time structure for the full star formation and metalliticy bins available in the main catalogues which can be used to compute galaxy emission in additional photometric bands or to serve as input for SED fiting codes. The resolution of the time-bins is approximately 2 Myr at the present day and decreases with increasing redshift. The binning method, as well as sample star-formation histories, are described in Shamshiri et al. 2015 . Soon we also plan on making available full spectra, computed from these star formation histories, for a representative subset of galaxies.

The columns representing these bins are called

sfh_DiskMass_[i]
sfh_BulgeMass_[i]
sfh_ICMStellarMass_[i]
sfh_MetaksDiskMass_[i]
sfh_MetaksBulgeMass_[i]
sfh_MetaksICMStellarMass_[i]

Here [i] runs form 1-20, i.e. the real columns are sfh_DiskMass_1, sfh_DiskMass_2, ... etc.

Each combination of snapnum and [i] represents a bin with a particular lookback time and width. The tables SFH_Times_MR and SFH_Times_MRII contain the values for these and related properties.

name	datatype	unit	description
snapnum	integer		Snapshot number
bin	integer		The index of the SFH bins, value between 1 and 20. Corresponds to the index `i` on the various `sfh_***_i` columns in the main galaxy tables.
lookbackTime	float	yr	To center of bin
dt	float	yr	width of bin
nbins	integer		number of smallest size bins that were merged into this bin
t_from	float	yr	Lookback time to nearest side of bin.
t_to	float	yr	Lookback time to farthest side of bin.
