16 Aug 2000 | Subject: | astro-ph | Affiliation: | Steward), Carlton Baugh, Shaun Cole, Carlos Frenk (Durham) and Cedric Lacey (SISSA | Abstract: | We examine the present-day galaxy disk colors and star formation rates (SFRs) in the semi-analytic model of Cole et al. (2000). We find that the fiducial model is a good match to Kennicutt’s (1998) observed global star formation law, the color-based metallicity-magnitude correlation and the colors of low-luminosity galaxies. The main limitation of the model, from the point of view of present-day spirals, is that the optical colors of the disks of very luminous spiral galaxies are too blue, even after accounting for the effects of dust. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0008252 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
