A catalog of star formation and metallicity

The result is a catalog of stellar masses, detailed star formation and metallicity histories and dust content of nearly 800000 galaxies. We make the catalog public via a T-SQL database.

We present the results using a range of stellar population and dust models, and will continue to update the catalog as new and improved models are made public. We also present a brief exploration of the catalog, and show that the quantities derived are robust: luminous red galaxies can be described by one to three populations, whereas a main galaxy sample galaxy needs on average two to five; red galaxies are older and less dusty; the dust values we recover are well correlated with measured Balmer decrements and star formation rates are also in agreement with previous measurements.
