Capaccioli ( INAF-Osservatorio Astronomico di Collurania, Teramo, Italy, Universita’ degli studi di Salerno, Italy, Universita’ di Roma, La Sapienza, Roma, Italy, INAF-Osservatorio Astronomico di | Abstract: | We present new theoretical evaluations of optical and near-IR Surface Brightness Fluctuations (SBF) magnitudes for single-burst stellar populations in the age range t=5-15 Gyr and metallicity from $Z_{sun}/200$ to $2Z_{sun}$. Our theoretical predictions can be successfully used to derive reliable distance evaluations. They also appear to be a new and valuable tool to trace the properties of unresolved stellar populations. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0209573 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
