Evolutionary Population Synthesis Models of Primeval Galaxies: a Critical Appraisal

Ultraviolet properties of primeval galaxies: theoretical models from stellar population synthesis

The ultraviolet luminosity evolution of star-forming galaxies is explored from the theoretical point of view, especially focusing on the theory of UV energetics in simple and composite stellar populations and its relationship to the star formation rate and other main evolutionary parameters. Galaxy emission below λ < 3000 Å directly correlates with actual star formation, not depending on the to...

UV Properties of Primeval Galaxies

The problem of UV properties of primeval galaxies is briefly assessed from the theoretical point of view discussing its impact on the definition of the cosmological model.

Animal models of psoriasis: a critical appraisal.

Although there is no naturally occurring disorder in laboratory animals that mimics the complex phenotype of psoriasis, a large number of spontaneous or genetically engineered mutations in rodents, immunological reconstitution approaches or xenotransplantation models have shed light on specific aspects implicated in the pathophysiology and therapy of psoriasis. Animal models have helped to eluc...

Evolutionary synthesis models for spirals and irregular galaxies

We show autoconsistent chemical and spectro-photometric evolution models applied to spiral and irregular galaxies. Evolutionary synthesis models usually used to explain the stellar component spectro-photometric data, are combined with chemical evolution models, to determine precisely the evolutionary history of spiral and irregular galaxies. In this piece of work we will show the results obtain...
