Starburst99: Synthesis Models for Galaxies with Active Star Formation

Authors: Claus Leitherer,1 Daniel Schaerer,2 Jeffrey D. Goldader,3 Rosa M. González Delgado,4 Carmelle Robert,5 Denis Foo Kune6, Duília F. de Mello,7 Daniel Devost,8 Timothy M. Heckman9
Starburst99 is a comprehensive set of model predictions for spectrophotometric and related properties of galaxies with active star formation. The models are an improved and extended version of the data set previously published by Leitherer & Heckman (1995). We have upgraded our code by implementing the latest set of stellar evolution models of the Geneva group and the model atmosphere grid compiled by Lejeune et al. (1997). Several predictions which were not included in the previous publication are shown here for the first time. The models are presented in a homogeneous way for five metallicities between Z = 0.040 and 0.001 and three choices of the initial mass function. The age coverage is 106 to 109 yr. We also show the spectral energy distributions which are used to compute colors and other quantities. The full data set is available for retrieval at http://www.stsci.edu/science/starburst99/. This website allows users to run specific models with non-standard parameters as well. We also make the source code available to the community.
