Abstract:
We have analyzed the bivariate distribution of galaxies as a function
of ultraviolet-optical colors and absolute magnitudes in the local
universe. The sample consists of galaxies with redshifts and optical
photometry from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) main galaxy sample
matched with detections in the near-ultraviolet (NUV) and
far-ultraviolet (FUV) bands in the Medium Imaging Survey being carried
out by the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) satellite. Finally, we
present the distribution of galaxies as a function of specific star
formation rate and stellar mass. The specific star formation rates
imply that galaxies along the blue sequence progress from low-mass
galaxies with star formation rates that increase somewhat with time to
more massive galaxies with a more or less constant star formation
rate.
Description:
The UV data presented here are derived from the GALEX Medium Imaging
Survey (MIS; Martin et al., 2005ApJ...619L...1M 2005ApJ...619L...1M). The data set used in
our analysis is taken from the union of the GALEX first data release
(GR1) with the GALEX internal release IR1.1. The GALEX MIS catalogs
were matched with the SDSS MPA/JHU DR4 value-added catalogs.
