(1998),and the older,but now modified,Green et al.tables(1987).The web interface to the CMD calculator can be found at the two YY web sites:/demarque/yyiso.htmlIn addition,these two web sites provide links to the four YY papers listed above,and codes to interpolate between isochrones in age and chemical composition within the available parameter range.2.CMD calculator input parametersA number of input parameters must be defined in the construction of synthetic CMDs. The list of input parameters on the web interface is given below.The output CMD can be retrieved either in tabular or graphical form.•AlphaThis is the composition parameter[α/F e],which denotes the relative abundance by number with respect to the Sun ofαenriched nuclei in the chemical composition mixture.The notation is the usual logarithmic relative abundance with respect to the Sun.In this notation,the metallicity of a star is defined by[X/H]≡log(N X/N H)⋆−log(N X/N H)⊙(1) where N X and N H are the relative abundances by numbers of element X and of hy-drogen,respectively.The abundance ratio[α/F e]is defined correspondingly.InputTable1.The assumptions forα-enhancement Element[α/Fe]=0.0a[α/Fe]=+0.3[α/Fe]=+0.6a The scaled-solar abundance ratios of metals are taken from Grevesse&Noels1993.Note.—The abundance of the elements in logarithmic scale,log N el/N H+12,where N el is the abundance by number.values ofαmust be in the range0.0to0.6(by definition,α=0corresponds to the solar mixture).•MetallicityThe metallicity parameter Z for the synthetic CMD.Z is the mass fraction of the heavy elements as usually defined in stellar interior calculations(i.e.X+Y+Z= 1,where X and Y are the mass fractions of H and He).The parameter Z should be in the range(near)0.0to0.08(Note that Z≡0is not allowed).Table2provides a conversion between Z and[F e/H]for different values of[α/F e].•AgeThe age of the stellar population(in Gyr)for the calculated synthetic CMD.•Number of starsThe total number of stars N to be used in the calculation of the synthetic CMD.A maximum of100,000stars is allowed for the value of N.The total number of stars N in the synthetic CMD is defined as:N=C M upper M lower M−(x+1)dM(2)where x is the IMF slope,and M upper and M lower define the range of masses included in the integration.The definition of x is the same as in the review by Tinsley(1980). The YY luminosity functions are tabulated for x=-1,1.35and3.The x=1.35power law corresponds to the Salpeter IMF(1955).C is a normalization constant.The YY tables are normalized to1000stars in the mass range0.5-1.0M⊙.•IMF slopeChosen value of the IMF slope x defined in eq.(2)(Note that x=0).•IMF upper limitThe upper mass limit M upper of the IMF in eq.(2),in solar units.•IMF lower limitThe lower mass limit M lower of the IMF in eq.(2),in solar units.•ISEEDThe random number generator seed to be used for the synthetic CMD calculations. Varying ISEED illustrates the importance of stochastic effects in CMDs for a given set of input parameters.A knowledge of ISEED allows the user to retrieve previously made synthetic CMDs.•Binary fractionThe fraction of binary stars for the calculated synthetic CMD,given as a number between0.0and1.0.•qmassMass fraction for binary stars,given as a number between0.0and1.0.3.ExamplesA series of examples are now presented that illustrate the effect of varying the input parameters one at a time.Fig.1shows the reference synthetic CMD against which other CMD examples can be compared,The following input reference parameters were adopted:REFERENCE PARAMETERST he parameter alphaFig.3shows the effect of varying[α/F e]from0.to0.3.Table2,taken from Paper2, lists the corresponding changes in total Z.The reader is referred to Paper2for a discussion of the different effects of variations in[α/F e]in low-Z and high-Z mixtures.Relative H and He abundancesNote that in the YY isochrone tables,the helium content by mass Y is keptfixed for a given value of Z.In all examples given here,(∆Y/∆Z)=2has been assumed.This corresponds to Y=0.238for Z=0.004,and to Y=0.27for Z=0.02.•Varying the ageIn Fig.4,the age has been changed from8.0to5.0Gyr.•Varying the total number of stars NIn Fig.5,the value of N is changed from1000to500.As expected,stochasticfluctu-ations become larger as N decreases.•Varying the mass function parametersThe distribution of stellar masses in the synthetic model depends on three parameters, the IMF slope x and the upper and lower masses,M upper and M lower respectively. The effect of changing the IMF slope from x=1.35to0.5is shown in Fig.6.The effects of changing independently the upper and lower mass limits to3.0M⊙and0.7M⊙are shown in Fig.7and Fig.8,respectively,all other parameters are as given in the reference parameter list.•ISEEDVarying ISEED highlights the role of stochastic effects.For small N,stochastic effects become significant in rapid evolutionary phases.For example,the two CMDs shown in Fig.9and Fig.10are based on the same set of input parameters(except that ISEED=299and128,respectively).This introduces an uncertainty in the integrated energy distribution of the stellar population.•Varying the binary star contentThe presence of unresolved binaries can also affect the CMD significantly.Fig.1shows a synthetic CMD that does not include binaries.Fig.11and Fig.12are plotted for a binary fraction of0.2,but with the different mass fractions qmass=0.3and 0.7,respectively.The synthetic cluster CMDs by Woo et al.(2000)illustrate the importance of including binary systems,particularly in moderately rich stellar systems.4.ConclusionsThis note describes a web-based CMD calculator designed for the study of stellar popu-lations in the Galaxy and distant stellar systems.This web based calculator,which is based on the YY isochrones,is a useful tool for studies of resolved star clusters,and for explo-rations of the sensitivity of the integrated light of stellar systems to stellar and population parameters.Future versions of this calculator will be based on a more comprehensive YY database covering an extended range of helium abundances,the inclusion of helium burning phases of evolution,often very significant in the CMDs of stellar systems,and the availability of a simple spectral energy distribution(SED)library.This research was supported in part by NASA grant HST-GO-10505.03-A.5.ReferencesDemarque,P.,Woo,J.-H.,Kim,Y.-C.&Yi,S.2004,ApJS,155,667(Paper4)Green,E.M.,Demarque,P.,&King,C.R.1987,The Revised Yale Isochrones and Lumi-nosity Functions(New Haven:Yale Univ.Obs.)Grevesse,N.,&Noels,A.1993,in Origin and Evolution of the Elements,ed.N.Prantzos, E.Vangioni-Flam,&M.Cass´e(Cambridge:Cambridge Univ.Press)Kim,Y.-C.,Demarque,P.,Yi,S.&Alexander,D.R.2002,ApJS,143,499(Paper2) Lejeune,Th.,Cuisinier,F.&Buser,R.1998,A&A,130,65Park,J.-H.&Lee,Y.-W.1997,ApJ,476,28Salpeter,E.E.1955,ApJ,121,161Tinsley,B.M.1980,Fund.Cosmic Phys.,5,287Woo,J-H.,Gallart,C.,Demarque,P.,Yi,S.,Zoccali,M.2003,AJ,125,754Yi,S.,Demarque,P.,Kim,Y.-C.,Lee,Y.-W.,Ree,C.H.Lejeune,Th.&Barnes,S.2001, ApJS,136,417(Paper1)Yi,S.,Kim,Y-C.,&Demarque,P.2003,ApJS,144,259(Paper3)Table2.Conversion from[Fe/H]to Z[Fe/H]Z[α/Fe]=0.0[α/Fe]=+0.3[α/Fe]=+0.6。

Dual-channel capability enables measurement for both cooling tower and boiler system applications. Simple to operate, the Opti-Check is a perfect tool for system verification. The Opti-Check can be configured with two channels: Fluorescein, PTSA or both.1.2 Quick View Diagrams1.3 Inspection and Setup1.3.1 InspectionUpon receiving your instrument, please inspect everything carefully and make sure allaccessories are present. All shipments include:•The Opti-Check•The User’s Manual on CD• 4 - AAA batteries•Cuvettes – Qty 4• Storage Pouch1.3.2 SetupBefore the Opti-Check can be used, the supplied batteries must be installed.1. On the back side of the instrument, remove the battery panel by loosening the centerscrew and then gently pulling on the screw. There is some resistance due to the o-ring which is used for watertight sealing (see Section 1.2 for diagram).2. Install the 4 - AAA batteries and verify the batteries are positioned correctly.3. Replace the battery panel and press it down into position.4. Hold the battery panel down in place and gently tighten the screw until it is snug.Do not over tighten the screw.Note: If the battery panel is very difficult to press down or remove, you can apply a small amount of silicon-based grease to lubricate the o-ring as needed.1.4 General Information, Precautions and Cleaning•The sample compartment cannot accept 10 mm square cuvettes because the cuvette wall thickness exceeds the 12 mm maximum outer dimension that the Opti-Check canaccept. The 10 mm size is the internal dimension of the cuvette and some plasticcuvettes may be too large.•Do not force oversized cuvettes into the sample compartment. This can damage the sample compartment. If the cuvette does not easily fit down inside the Opti-Check you will need to purchase different cuvettes.•Use caution around solvents because they may attack the plastic case of the Opti-Check.•If a sample is accidentally spilled inside the Sample Compartment, invert the Opti-Check to drain out the excess liquid. Then wipe the inside area dry with a clean soft towel ortissue.•If extra cleaning is needed, use a mild detergent to dampen the towel for cleaning.•Do not submerge the Opti-Check in water.•Do not expose the Opti-Check to temperatures outside the specified range of5 to 40 °C or damage may occur to the unit that will not be covered under warranty.2 Instrument Specifications2.1 General SpecificationsSpecification DescriptionSize 1.75” x 3.5” x 7.25”(4.45cm x 8.9cm x 18.4cm)Weight 13.9oz(0.4kg)Dynamic range 3 orders of magnitudeResolution 12bitsLCD Display 2 x 16 charactersCase Meets IP 67 Standard; dustproof and watertight Temperature 41-104 °F; 5-40 °CDetector PhotodiodeCalibration Type Single-point and blankError message Low battery, High blankCuvette Type MethacrylateWarm Up Time 5 secondsAuto Power Off After 3 minutes of inactivity2.2 Optical Configurations for Application (Channel)Application Light SourceMinimumDetection LimitLinear Range Excitation EmissionTemperatureCoefficientsFluorescein Dye Blue LED < 1 ppb 0 - 400 ppb 485 nm 540 nm0.0036/°CExponentialPTSA UV LED < 1 ppb 0 – 1000 ppb 365 nm 400 nm -0.00126/°C Exponential2.3 Cuvette informationCuvette type Size Usage Part No.Methacrylate plastic 10 mm Square(height 44.5 mm)Required for UV (< 400 nm), works for all applications.Do NOT use with solvents7000-9593 Instrument Operation and Calibration3.1 Instrument Power UpTo turn on the Opti-Check, press the <ON/OFF> button. After a 5 second warm up, the Opti-Check is ready for operation.Pressing the <ON/OFF> button again will turn the unit off or if left idle for 3 minutes the unit will turn itself off to save battery power.A set of new batteries will last for over 1,000 sample readings. If the batteries have lowpower or are not positioned properly, the following warning message will be displayed – “Batt Level < 20% !! Caution !!”.The contrast of the display can change with temperature and will get lighter as the unit gets colder. The contrast can be easily adjusted. Press the ↑ arrow button to darken thecontrast and press the ↓ arrow to lighten the display contrast.3.2 Detection Channel ConfigurationThe Opti-Check can be configured with one or two optical channels. To identify theconfiguration look at the label on the back side of the Opti-Check.The <A/B> button allows the user to toggle between the 2 channels. The display will show a label in the lower left corner of the Home screen to identify which channel is activated.3.3 Calibration OverviewThe Opti-Check can be calibrated using a Primary standard. A Primary Standard is one that contains the same fluorescent material that you are measuring in your unknown samples.The Opti-Check will give an actual quantitative concentration reading when a primarystandard of known concentration is used for calibration.The standard and samples must be in the linear detection range to get accurate quantitative results. Refer to Section 5.3 for more details about the linear range and quenching of the samples.For Dye tracing applications the calibration is normally performed with a primary standard made from the same dye that is being used for the testing. The primary standard will either be made to a known concentration, typically in ppb or µg/L units, or to a known dilution factor. Ideally the Primary Standard and Blank samples used for calibrating will be made with the same water the tests are being performed in.3.4 Calibration ProcedureIt is recommended for best accuracy, that you always calibrate before performing yoursample analysis. The Opti-Check will save the calibration settings for each channel until a new calibration is performed.If the temperature of your samples or the Opti-Check changes significantly, the readings may show a small shift and in this case, you should consider recalibrating.The Opti-Check is designed with “ambient light rejection”. The black sample compartment cover does NOT need to be closed when calibrating or reading samples.The orientation and cleanliness of the cuvettes can have an impact on the accuracy of your results. Refer to Section 4, Sample Analysis Guidelines for information to help ensure the best results for your analysis.3.4.1 Assign a Calibration Standard Value.This defines the numeric value that you want the standard to read. For example, if you calibrate with a primary standard that has a concentration of 100ppb, then you will setthe value to 100 and the implied unit of measure will be in ppb.3.4.1.1 Press the <STD VAL> button.3.4.1.2 Use the ↑ and ↓ arrow buttons to set the standard value. Pressing the arrowbutton once quickly will make a small incremental change to the value. Holdingeither arrow button will allow you to change the value using fast scrolling.3.4.1.3 When finished, Press the <ENT> or <ESC> button to accept the value and toreturn to the Home screen.3.4.2 Perform the Calibration.3.4.2.1 Press the <CAL> button.3.4.2.1 Press <ENT> to start the calibration.3.4.2.3 Insert your blank sample and press <ENT>. The Opti-Check will average thereading for 10 seconds and set the blanking zero point.3.4.2.4 Insert the standard sample and press <ENT>. The reading is averaged for 10seconds and the Standard Calibration value is set.3.4.2.5 Press <ENT> when the calibration is complete to accept the calibration. If<ENT> is not pressed within 10 seconds, you will be asked if you want to abortthe calibration. Press the ↑ or ↓ arrow button to abort or accept the calibrationrespectively.If at anytime during steps 1-4 you want to stop the calibration, press <ESC>.This will return you to the Home screen and will default the instrument to theprevious calibration.3.4.3 Calibration CheckOnce the Opti-Check calibration is accepted, press the <DIAG> button to see whatyour standard to blank ratio is. The standard to blank ratio is defined as the %FSblank as compared to the %FS standard. The %FS signal should be at least 5 timeslarger than the %FS Blank. It should be between 5 and 30.•If your %FS std:%FS blk ratio is greater than 30, dilute your CalibrationStandard accordingly and recalibrate. Check the ratio again.•If your ratio is less than 5 you'll have to find a different standard for calibration.•If your ratio falls between 5 and 30 after the initial calibration then you can start measuring samples.Analysis3.5 Sample1. Insert your sample. The Opti-Check is designed with “ambient light rejection”. Theblack sample compartment cover does NOT need to be closed when reading samples.The orientation and cleanliness of the cuvettes can have an impact on the accuracy ofyour results. Refer to Section 5 for more details.2. Press the <READ> button. The instrument will measure and average the fluorescencesignal for 5 seconds.3. The reading result will be displayed on the top line of the Home screen.4. The top left corner will then display “WAIT” for 5 seconds. Once “WAIT” disappears,another sample reading can be performed.Information3.6 Diagnostic1. Press <DIAG> to access the diagnostic screens.2. Press <ENT> to toggle to the %FS (Full Scale) values for the blank (Blk) and standard(STD) calibration points. The STD value should be at least 5 times larger than the Blkvalue to ensure consistent results. This is often referred to as the Standard to BlankRatio.3. Press <ESC> when finished to return to the Home screen.4 Sample Analysis Guidelines4.1 Handling Samples4.1.1 Take care not to spill samples into the sample chamber. Wipe up any spillspromptly.4.1.2 The cuvette MUST BE DRY on the outside when taking readings. Any moisture orcondensation on the outside of the cuvette can affect the reading.4.1.3 Fill the cuvette with at least 2mL solution volume or at least 2/3 full. Significant errorin the readings can result if the cuvette contains less than this minimum volume.4.1.4 The Opti-Check is very sensitive and even small amounts of material from a previoussample may contaminate the sample and result in errors. Use a clean cuvette for allreadings. If you are using the same cuvette for your samples it is very important thatyou thoroughly clean the cuvette between samples. A good way to confirm thecuvette cleanliness is to read a blank solution. If the reading is higher than thenormal blank reading, the cuvette is not clean.4.1.5 Any bubbles in the sample will affect the readings. Take care not to introducebubbles into samples. Remove any bubbles by lightly tapping with your finger on theoutside cuvette wall or cover the top of the cuvette and tilt the sample to helpdissipate bubbles.4.2 Positioning SamplesThe orientation of the cuvette in the sample compartment can give slightly different readings especially for low concentration samples. This is due to variations in the walls of the cuvette that are not readily visible to the eye. We recommend that the cuvette be marked at the top on one side and positioned in the sample compartment the same way each time for best results.4.3 Linear Range and QuenchingThe linear range is the concentration range in which the readout of the Opti-Check is directly proportional to the concentration of the fluorophore in the sample. The linear range begins with the lowest detectable concentration and spans to an upper limit concentration that is dependent on the properties of the fluorescent material and the cuvette optical path length.For Fluorescein dye in the 10 mm square cuvette, the upper limit of linearity is approximately 400 ppb.At concentrations above this upper limit, the fluorescence reading will not increase at a linear rate in comparison to the change in concentration. At concentrations 10 times higher than the upper limit, the readings will start to decrease even though the sampleconcentration is increasing.This effect is known as "sample quenching" and is due to light absorption losses in thesample. See the Figure 1 graph below.When you start to see visual color in the sample, this is an indicator that the sample may be above the upper limit of linearity. The linearity can be verified by diluting a sample 1:1 or another convenient dilution ratio. If the sample is within the linear range, the reading will decrease in direct proportion to the dilution. If the reading does not decrease in directproportion to the dilution or if the reading increases, the original sample concentration was above the linear range.Figure 1. Linearity and Calibration Response Curve4.4 Temperature ConsiderationsFluorescence is temperature sensitive. As the temperature of the sample increases, the fluorescence decreases. For best accuracy make sure your samples are at the sametemperature as the calibration standard. If you have the ability to measure sampletemperature, a temperature coefficient may be applied to your measurements, see section2.2.4.5 Data QualityThe Opti-Check is only as accurate as the standards that are used to calibrate it. This is why it is important to take care when preparing standards, samples, and blank. One should follow good laboratory practices when preparing all solutions and samples.5 Applications5.1 FluoresceinFluorescein is a fluorescent tracer dye that provides an accurate, cost effective method for monitoring industrial boiler applications. Fluorescein dye can be detected using the Blue channel on the Opti-Check between 485-540nm. The linear detection range is 0 to 400 ppb (active ingredient) in potable water.Turner Designs offers Fluorescein Dye (PN 10-508) Calibration standard 10 ppb andFluorescein Dye (PN 10-509) Calibration standard 400 ppb.5.2 PTSAPTSA is a fluorescent tracer dye that measures in the UV range on the Opti-Check between 365-400nm. It can provide an accurate, cost effective method for monitoring industrial cooling tower applications and it can also be used as a standard for UV sensors. The linear detection range is 0 to 1000 ppb.Turner Designs offers PTSA (PN 10-608) Calibration standard 100 ppb and PTSA (PN 10-609) Calibration standard 400 ppb.6 Quick Diagnosis Guide6.1 Power / Battery / Screen IssuesThe Opti-Check is, generally, a trouble-free solid-state instrument.

太空风景描述英文作文初中Title: A Journey Through Space: Describing Cosmic Landscapes。
Space, the final frontier, holds within its vast expanse a beauty beyond comprehension. As we embark on a journey through the cosmic landscapes, we are greeted by sights that inspire awe and wonder, each one more breathtaking than the last.First, let us venture into the heart of a nebula, where clouds of gas and dust dance gracefully amidst the darkness of space. The colors here are like a painter's palette, with hues of pink, blue, and purple swirling together in a mesmerizing display. Bright stars peek through the mist, casting a gentle glow upon the celestial canvas.Moving further into the cosmos, we encounter the majestic beauty of a spiral galaxy. Spiral arms stretch outwards, adorned with clusters of stars and nebulae,creating a scene of unparalleled grandeur. In the center, a supermassive black hole lurks, its gravitational pull shaping the very fabric of space-time around it.As we continue our journey, we come across the enigmatic terrain of a planetary system. Here, we witness the diverse landscapes of distant worlds, each one uniquein its own right. Mountains soar towards the heavens, their peaks dusted with snow and ice. Vast plains stretch out as far as the eye can see, dotted with craters and valleys carved by ancient impacts. And on some planets, oceans of liquid methane shimmer under the light of distant stars, their depths hiding untold mysteries.But perhaps the most awe-inspiring sight of all is the cosmic ballet of a supernova explosion. In a brilliant burst of light and energy, a dying star collapses in on itself, unleashing a shockwave that reverberates throughout the cosmos. For a brief moment, the night sky isilluminated with the brilliance of a thousand suns, casting shadows across the vastness of space.Yet amidst the beauty and wonder of the cosmos, thereis also a sense of humility. We are but specks of dust in the face of such grandeur, mere observers in the theater of the universe. And yet, it is this very sense of insignificance that fills us with awe and wonder, reminding us of the boundless possibilities that lie beyond the confines of our own world.In conclusion, the space is a realm of unparalleled beauty and majesty, where the wonders of the cosmos unfold in an endless symphony of light and color. From theswirling clouds of a nebula to the explosive fury of a supernova, each sight serves as a reminder of the vastness and complexity of the universe in which we reside. And as we gaze upon these cosmic landscapes, we are filled with a sense of awe and wonder, humbled by the sheer magnitude of it all.。

On the other hand,the luminosity of blue sequence galaxies is nearly independent of envi-ronment while both luminous and faint red galaxies are found on average in higher density environments than intermediate luminosity red galaxies(Hogg et al.2003).The galaxy bimodality has also begun to be investigated based upon large samples of galaxy spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey(SDSS).In particular,Kauffmann et al. (2003a)developed a method that uses the Balmer absorption line index HδA and the4000˚A break strength D n(4000)measured from the SDSSfiber spectra in the central3′′of each galaxy to constrain the star formation histories,dust attenuation,and stellar masses for their sample.Based upon these derived parameters,Kauffmann et al.(2003b)showed that galaxies tend to divide into two distinct groups around a stellar mass of3×1010M⊙, similar to the transition mass noted in the optical galaxy CMD(Baldry et al.2004).While galaxies below this mass tend to have younger stellar populations,more massive galaxies tend to be older.In related work,Brinchmann et al.(2004)used the emission lines in the SDSS spectra to determine star formation rates(SFRs)for a large sample of SDSS ing the specific star formation rate,i.e.the current SFR divided by the stellar mass M∗,Brinchmann et al.(2004)found that galaxies with108<M<109M⊙have log(SF R/M∗)=−9.6to−10,values consistent with an approximately constant SFR with time.Above1010M⊙,the specific SFRs decline with mass,implying star formation histories increasingly weighted to much older ages.The evolution of the galaxy color-magnitude diagram out to z∼1has begun to be explored(Willmer et al.2006;Faber et al.2006;Blanton2006).These results show that the galaxy bimodality is already in place at z∼1.However,the color of both sequences tends to become somewhat bluer with increasing redshift while the luminosity function of both red and blue galaxies shifts to higher luminosities(Blanton2006;Willmer et al.2006). Based upon combining the DEEP2and COMBO17surveys,Faber et al.(2006)argued that the number density of blue galaxies is more or less constant from z∼1to z∼0,while thenumber density of red galaxies has been increasing.Faber et al.(2006)proposed a scenarioto explain their data in which some blue galaxies migrate to the red sequence as a result of gas-rich mergers that use up the remaining gas in an interaction-induced starburst.These galaxies then migrate up the red sequence by a series of gas-free mergers.The origin of the galaxy bimodality and corresponding transition mass of a few×1010M⊙is beginning to be understood theoretically.Based upon a semi-analytic model utilizing some simple prescriptions for gas cooling,star formation,and supernova feedback coupled with merging histories of dark matter haloes,Menci et al.(2005)modeled the(u−r)vs.M r CMD of Baldry et al.(2004).In their model,feedback from supernovae is ineffectiveat regulating star formation for galaxies above a certain threshold halo mass.In these massive galaxies all of the gas is consumed relatively quickly and results in a red sequence galaxy at zero redshift.Blue sequence galaxies,on the other hand,tend to come from less massive progenitors where supernovae feedback is effective at regulating star formation,thus allowing star formation to continue down to the present.While their model is successfulat reproducing most of the optical CMD,it predicts too many blue galaxies at M r=−22 compared to the observations.A different explanation for the origin of bimodality has been suggested by Dekel&Birnboim (2006).According to this model,above a critical halo mass M shock∼1012M⊙,a shock is generated in the gas accreting onto the dark matter halo which heats most of the gas and prevents it from cooling and forming stars.In these massive haloes,star formation does happen at z 2due to cold gas that is able to penetrate the hot gas,leading to a burst of star formation,while for z 2heating from Active Galactic Nuclei(AGN)prevents gas from forming any more stars.This naturally leads to the most massive galaxies lying on the red sequence at z∼0.For galaxies residing in halos with masses less than1012M⊙,the gas is not shock heated,allowing coldflows to fuel star formation that is then regulated by supernova feedback.As a result,lower mass galaxies lie on the blue sequence and the location of the bright tip of the blue sequence is due to the onset of the shock in the accreting gas for more massive halos and the feedback from AGN.In this scenario,galaxies tend to move up the blue sequence with time until their masses go above M shock,or they merge into another more massive halo with mass above M shock,after which the gas in the galaxy is no longer allowedto cool and star formation ceases.Both Cattaneo et al.(2006)and Croton et al.(2006)have coupled semi-analytic models including the transition from shock heating to coldflows and feedback from supernova as well as AGN with the merging histories of dark matter haloes from N-body simulations.While the details of the modeling of the baryonic physics differs somewhat,both groups were able to reproduce the local galaxy CMD by tuning the various parameters affecting star formation and feedback in their models.In this paper,we investigate the galaxy bimodality as revealed in the UV minus optical colors of a large sample of galaxies observed by both the Galaxy Evolution Explorer(GALEX) and the SDSS.While significant contributions to the UV luminosity can come from older evolved stars in red sequence galaxies(e.g.Yi et al.2005;Rich et al.2005),in general the UV light in galaxies is dominated by massive stars with main sequence lifetimes up to∼108 yrs.As a result,the emerging UV luminosity is proportional to the recent star formation rate once corrected for light absorbed by dust(Kennicutt1998).The greater sensitivity of the GALEX bands to the recent star formation rate as compared to the SDSS u band would lead us to expect a greater separation between the red and blue sequences.While the measurements from the SDSS spectra are sensitive diagnostics of the stellar populations in galaxies,they are measured only in the central3′′of each galaxy,making somewhat uncertain aperture corrections necessary to account for the portion of each galaxy not sampled.While the UV data presented here is much more susceptible to dust attenuation than in the optical SDSS data,the UV measurements sample the entire galaxy and thus complement the SDSS measurements.2.Data and Analysis2.1.GALEX DataThe UV data presented here are derived from the GALEX Medium Imaging Survey (MIS)(Martin et al.2005).GALEX is a50cm diameter UV telescope that images the sky simultaneously in both a F UV and a NUV band,centered at1540˚A and2300˚A, respectively.Thefield-of-view of GALEX is approximately circular with a diameter of1.◦2 and resolution of about5.′′5FWHM in the NUV.The MIS pointings are chosen to overlap areas of sky with imaging and spectroscopy from the SDSS and consist of exposures of at least one to a few orbits with the mode of the exposure time distribution being1700sec. The dataset used in our analysis is taken from the union of the GALEXfirst data release (GR1)with the GALEX internal release IR1.1,a subset of which has been included in the second data release(GR2)publicly available from the GALEX archive.1The IR1.1data was processed with a pipeline very similar to that used in the GR1data and employed the same calibration as used in that release.Details of the GALEX detectors,pipeline,calibration and source extraction can be found in Morrissey et al.(2005,2007).The GALEX pipeline uses the SExtractor program(Bertin&Arnouts1996)to de-tect and make measurements of sources in the images.Throughout this paper,we use the”MAGAUTO aperture and theflatfield response,exposure time,and sky background at the source position.In addition to the sta-tistical errors,we have added in quadrature an assumed zero-point plusflatfield uncertainty of2%in the NUV and5%in the F UV(Morrissey et al.2007).The errors increase from the zeropoint uncertainty at the bright end up to≈0.2−0.3mag at23rd mag in both bands.2.2.GALEX-SDSS Matched SampleThe GALEX MIS catalogs were matched with the SDSS MPA/JHU DR4value-added catalogs.2These catalogs consist of line and index measurements from the SDSS spectra as well as many derived quantities and are described in more detail in a series of papers on the star formation rates,star formation histories,stellar masses,and metallicities of galaxies in the local universe(Kauffmann et al.2003a,b;Brinchmann et al.2004;Tremonti et al.2004). For each GALEX pointing,SDSS sources within0.◦6of the GALEXfield center were matched with the nearest GALEX source within a radius of4′′.When concatenating together the catalogs for all thefields,we removed duplicate GALEX detections in the overlap regions between adjacent pointings by using the SDSS identification numbers(Plate ID,MJD,Fiber ID)and selecting the GALEX match closest to itsfield center.After matching the GALEX and SDSS data,we further restricted the sample with various cuts intended to generate a complete statistical sample which are summarized in Table1.For the SDSS photometry,we selected galaxies targetted for spectroscopy in the SDSS main galaxy sample with r-band magnitudes in the range14.5<r<17.6.While the nominal magnitude limit of the SDSS main galaxy sample is r=17.77(Strauss et al.2002), in practice the limit varies as a function of position on the sky.After examining the galaxy number counts,we set the faint limit to r=17.6because the counts begin to turn-over below this level.While the median photometric error for the SDSS galaxies is only0.03mag,there are a small fraction with much larger errors.In order to remove these objects,we restrictedthe sample to galaxies with errorsσr<0.2mag.In addition to the photometry,we further restricted the sample to those galaxies with redshifts z in the range0.01<z<0.25and with redshift confidence z conf>0.67.In addition to the cuts on the SDSS data,we applied several cuts based upon the UV measurements.Since GALEX photometry and astrometry degrade near the edge of the detectors,we only included objects in the sample if their distance from the GALEX field center fovartifact≤1.This excludes from our sample galaxies that lie within regions expected to be contaminated by reflections from bright stars within thefield.Areas of the images with nuvIn the F UV sample,the red edge of the color distribution thus reflects the UV magnitude limit.The fraction of SDSS main sample galaxies that lie within0.◦55of a GALEX MISfield center and that have a GALEX match within our4′′search radius is shown in Figure4as a function of r magnitude.In the NUV sample,the completeness is roughly constant at about90%down to r≈16.5.Fainter than this magnitude,the completeness begins to drop off.There are very few galaxies with colors redder than(NUV−r)≈6.5.At the GALEX magnitude limit of23mag,a galaxy with this red a color would have r=16.5.Thus,the fraction of SDSS galaxies with a GALEX match begins to drop fainter than this r magnitude due to increasing numbers of red galaxies falling below the GALEX detection limit.For the F UV sample,the reddest galaxies have(F UV−r)≈7.5which corresponds to r=15.5at the limiting magnitude of F UV=23.As expected,the fraction of SDSS galaxies with an F UV match begins to decline at about this r magnitude.In both the F UV and NUV samples,the match completeness does not reach100% at bright r magnitudes.We have visually inspected all SDSS main sample galaxies with14.5<r<15.5that were observed by GALEX.For almost all of these galaxies,there isa galaxy visible in the GALEX images.However,the UV center measured by the GALEX pipeline for these non-matches lies more than4′′from the SDSS position.Sometimes the GALEX pipeline breaks the galaxy into more than one fragment,none of which are coincident with the SDSS position.In other cases,especially if the galaxy has a low UV surface brightness,the center can be offset from the SDSS position by more than our search radius even if the GALEX pipeline detects the galaxy as a single object.We assume that the level portion of the match completeness curves in Figure4gives the intrinsic completeness for GALEX detections of the SDSS main galaxy sample.The values we adopt are0.91and0.80 for the NUV and F UV,respectively.While the completeness of the SDSS photometric sample is nearly100%,some fraction of galaxies that meet the SDSS main galaxy sample selection do not have a redshift measured (Strauss et al.2002).Although some galaxies do not have a redshift due to low signal-to-noise in their spectra,the majority of targeted galaxies without redshifts are missed due to the constraint that SDSS spectroscopyfibers can not be placed closer than55′′to one another.Some of these missed galaxies can be observed in neighboring plates if that region of sky is covered by more than one plate.While the exact completeness is determined by the precise geometry of the spectroscopic plates,the result is that the spectroscopic completeness of the SDSS main galaxy sample is92-94%for the early release data(Strauss et al.2002; Blanton et al.2001).We have adopted a spectroscopic completeness of0.9.Multiplying the GALEX-SDSS match completeness by the SDSS spectroscopic completeness,we estimatedthe total completeness of our sample to be0.82in the NUV and0.72in the F UV.In calculating the volume densities below,we correct the number counts by these factors,(i.e. the factor f in equations(5)and(6)below).In addition to the spectroscopic incompleteness,there is an additional surface brightness selection that is imposed on the SDSS main galaxy sample.As a part of their study of the luminosity function of low luminosity galaxies,Blanton et al.(2005)investigated the com-pleteness as a function of surface brightness and found that the SDSS spectroscopic galaxy sample is greater than90%complete above a half light surface brightness ofµ50,r=22.4 mag arcsec−2with the completeness dropping to50%atµ50,r=23.4mag arcsec−2.Since lu-minosity and surface brightness are correlated,the surface brightness selection preferentially selects against dwarf galaxies.For galaxies brighter than M r=−18,Blanton et al.(2005) have afit a gaussian to the surface brightness distribution in a series of absolute magnitude bins and have used this model to extrapolate the number of galaxies likely missed due to the surface brightness selection at fainter luminosities.The fraction of galaxies missing from the sample increases from near zero at M r=−18to approximately40%at M r=−16.However, these low luminosity,low surface brightness galaxies do not make a significant contribution to the total luminosity density.Even after correcting for the surface brightness incomplete-ness,about90%of the r-band luminosity density is due to galaxies with M r<−17.Thus, the surface brightness selection is unlikely to affect our results for bright galaxies.However, we may be underestimating the number density of galaxies with−18<M r<−16by up to 40%.2.3.Absolute magnitudes and volume densitiesWe computed absolute magnitudes for our sample galaxies using,for example for the r-band,M r,0.1=m r−5log D L−25−K0.1,r(z)+(z−0.1)Q(1) where M r,0.1is the absolute magnitude,m r is the extinction corrected r-band magnitude, D L is the luminosity distance in Mpc,K0.1,r(z)is the K-correction needed to account for the shifting of the galaxy SEDs with respect to thefilter bandpass,and Q is a term to account for luminosity evolution in units of magnitudes per redshift.A positive value for Q means that galaxies get brighter with increasing redshift.Similar equations were used for the other bands.For calculating the luminosity distance we assumed a Hubble constant H0=70km s−1Mpc−1and aflat universe with matter density relative to the critical density ofΩm=0.3and dark energy density ofΩΛ=0.7.We calculated the K-corrections using the Know extended to handle GALEX data(Blanton&Roweis2007).Given the redshift of a galaxy,the Kwhile that of red galaxies is increasing.In order to asses the effect of color evolution on our results,we have recomputed the absolute magnitudes and volume densities described below for the NUV sample assuming evolution in the r-band of Q r=1.6and in the NUV of Q NUV=3.These choices correspond to a decrease in the(NUV−r)color of a galaxy across our redshift range from0.01<z<0.25 of0.34mag.We have compared many of the results presented in the following sections with and without allowing for color evolution.The morphology of the color-magnitude diagram remains largely unchanged with the peaks and widths of the red and blue sequences nearly the same.The largest effect of including color evolution is on the volume density of luminous blue galaxies since these galaxies are detectable across the entire redshift range and thus would have the largest color correction.Including color evolution also tends to increase somewhat the volume density of galaxies with very blue colors(NUV−r)<1.Specifically, including color evolution would increase the luminosity density of the bluest galaxies with 0<(NUV−r)<1by0.2dex in the r-band and by0.3dex in the NUV.Due to the large uncertainties remaining in the evolution of galaxy colors with redshift and the relatively minor effect it has on our results,we decided to neglect color evolution in our analysis.When correcting for Galactic extinction,we assumed the Cardelli et al.(1989)extinction law with R V=A V/E(B−V)=3.1.For the SDSS bands,the ratio of A(λ)/E(B−V)is 5.155,3.793,and2.751for u,g,and r,respectively,while for the F UV the ratio is8.24. Due to the presence of the2175˚A bump in the Galactic extinction law,the extinction in the NUV band is no longer strictly proportional to the reddening E(B−V).In order to quantify the effect this has on our extinction corrections,we used a small set of42 SEDs from Bruzual&Charlot(2003)that span a representative range of galaxy SEDs from quiescent ellipticals to rapidly star-forming galaxies.3For each intrinsic SED,we applied the Cardelli et al.(1989)extinction law and then computed the resulting NUV AB magnitude as a function of E(B−V).For each SED,wefit a a quadratic function of E(B−V):A NUV=a1E(B−V)+a2E(B−V)2.(2) For galaxies with some recent star formation,a1=8.24and a2=−0.67while for older galaxies with little or no recent star formation and a SED that falls steeply in the UV with decreasing wavelength,a1is slightly smaller and lies in the range7.5−8.0.For97%of our sample E(B−V)<0.1,and thus the quadratic term can be safely neglected.In addition, the maximum difference in the adopted value for A(NUV)for the range of values for a1 among the42SEDs,is only0.07mag at E(B−V)=0.1.Therefore,we assume the value A(NUV)/E(B−V)=8.2for all of our calculations.PHARE.html.As argued above,the fraction of SDSS main sample galaxies with GALEX detections is a strong function of the galaxy color.In Figures5and6,we plot contours of the fraction of SDSS galaxies with a GALEX match for the NUV and F UV samples,respectively.In both samples,the completeness for blue galaxies is more than90%while the completeness begins to drop for galaxies with(g−r)0.1>0.8.For the NUV sample the completeness along most of the red sequence is in the range30−60%while the completeness of the red sequence in the F UV sample is lower and in the range10−40%.It is important to note that this drop-offin the fraction of galaxies with a GALEX match is due to the GALEX magnitude limit and was taken into account below when computing the volume densities of galaxies as a function of absolute magnitude and color.We used the V max method(Schmidt1968)to determine the volume densities of galaxies in our samples.The value of V max for each galaxy is given by the maximum volume within which the galaxy could have been included in the sample,given our selection limits listed in Table1.We computed a separate V max for the F UV and NUV samples.First,we computed K0.1(z)for0.01<z<0.25for each galaxy using the best-fit SED derived from the output of the K3 π(1+z max)3−D L(z min)3∆M∆C 1that particular color and absolute magnitude bin centered on M r,0.1and(NUV−r)0.1.The corresponding uncertainty in each bin due to counting statistics is given byδΦ(M r,0.1,(NUV−r)0.1)=fV2max 1/2.(6)3.Results3.1.The Galaxy Color Magnitude DiagramThe number of galaxies in our(NUV−r)0.1and(F UV−r)0.1CMDs are plotted in Figures7and8,respectively.In both plots,the data are plotted as contours where the density of points is high while the locations of individual galaxies are plotted where the density is low.The uncertainty in the colors in both samples is dominated by the errors in the UV measurements.Thus the errors as a function of position in the CMDs are most strongly correlated with color.The median error as a function of color is plotted in Figures7 and8along the left-hand side of eachfigure.For blue galaxies,the uncertainty is dominated by the zero-point uncertainty in the GALEX data.For red galaxies,the errors span a larger range from0.1−0.4mag with a median of about0.2mag.The corresponding volume densities of galaxies as a function of position in the CMD are plotted in Figures9and10,where the weighting was derived from the V max values as in equation(5)with∆M=0.5mag and∆C=0.2mag.The peak of each sequence from the Gaussianfits described below are over-plotted as the dashed lines in the(NUV−r)diagram. The volume densities and the errors for the(NUV−r)diagram are given in Tables2and 3while those for the(F UV−r)diagram are given in Tables4and5.As we have argued in§2.2,the red edge of the color distribution in the NUV sample is real whereas the red edge of the F UV sample is a selection effect due to the F UVflux limit.This is reflected in the morphology of the galaxy distributions in Figures9and10, where the distribution turns over for the reddest colors in the NUV diagram and does not turn over entirely in the F UV diagram.Throughout the remainder of this paper,we focus on the NUV diagram.In both the F UV and NUV diagrams,the galaxies separate into two well-defined se-quences in addition to a population of galaxies that lie in between.As has been noted before in optical CMDs(e.g.Baldry et al.2004),the most luminous galaxies are on the red sequence,while both sequences become redder with increasing luminosity.In contrast to the optical(u−r)CMD,the blue sequence does not appear to merge at the bright end with the red sequence.An alternative view of the NUV sample is shown in Figure11where the volume density of galaxies is plotted as a function of the NUV luminosity.The sample reaches significantly fainter NUV absolute magnitudes for the red galaxies due to the SDSS r-band selection. Thus,the slope for the faintest NUV absolute magnitudes included in our sample as a function of color is a selection effect.As in Figure9,the sample separates into blue and red sequences.However,there is little,if any,trend of color with M NUV,0.1along either sequence.This is consistent with the conclusions from studies in the optical which indicate that one of the most important factors determining the evolution of a galaxy is its mass, which is much more closely related to the r-band luminosity than to the NUV luminosity (Kauffmann et al.2003b;Brinchmann et al.2004).3.2.Color Distributions as a Function of M r,0.1The volume-corrected number density of galaxies as a function of(NUV−r)0.1color is plotted in Figures12−14in0.5magnitude wide bins of M r,0.1.The error bars are the statistical errors only calculated using equation(6).Except for the most luminous bin,there is both a red and blue peak visible in each panel.Similar to previous optical CMDs,the red sequence dominates in the brighter bins.The red and blue sequences reach approximately equal strengths around M r,0.1=−21.75with the blue sequence becoming dominant at fainter luminosities.The relative number of red sequence galaxies reaches50%at about the same luminosity when dividing galaxies using the(u−r)color(Baldry et al.2004).Following Baldry et al.(2004),we attempted tofit Gaussians to the red and blue peaks in the color distributions in each M r,0.1bin although we employed a somewhat different√methodology.Wefit a single Gaussian of the form(1/。
