H𝛽 Emissions

Finkbeiner et al. 2003

Assuming Constant SFR: SFR(H𝜷) Indicator traces stars with lifetimes of ~3-10 Myr

Suggest: Best fit time scale ~4Myr for both the Bursty and Non-Bursty SFRs

slide-11
SLIDE 11

Suggest: Best fit time scale ~10Myr for Bursty SFRs and for Non-Bursty SFRs maybe ~20-30 Myr

Future Work

  • Perform analysis on higher resolution m12i.
  • Expand our studies to different mass galaxies.
