The Cosmic Evolution of Metallicity from the SDSS Fossil Record (2008)
Panter, Benjamin, Jimenez, Raul, Heavens, Alan F., Charlot, Stephane
We present the time evolution of the stellar metallicity for SDSS galaxies, a sample that spans five orders of magnitude in stellar mass (10^7 - 10^{12} Msun). Assuming the BC03 stellar population...
The star formation histories of galaxies in the sloan digital sky survey (2007)
Panter, Benjamin, Jimenez, Paul, Heavens, Alan F., Charlot, Stephane
Jimenez, Raul, Panter, Benjamin, Heavens, Alan, Verde, Licia
Using the spectroscopic sample of the SDSS DR1 we measure how gas was transformed into stars as a function of time and stellar mass: the baryonic conversion tree (BCT). There is a clear correlation...
The Complete Star Formation History of the Universe (2004)
Heavens, Alan, Panter, Benjamin, Jimenez, Raul, Dunlop, James
The determination of the star-formation history of the Universe is a key goal of modern cosmology, as it is crucial to our understanding of how structure in the Universe forms and evolves. A picture...
Star Formation and Metallicity History of the SDSS galaxy survey: unlocking the fossil record (2002)
Panter, Benjamin, Heavens, Alan F., Jimenez, Raul
Using MOPED we determine non-parametrically the star-formation and metallicity history of over 37,000 high-quality galaxy spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) early data release. We use...
