The project of the informational system creation on the problem of evolution of radio galaxies, as a part of the "Big Trio" project aimed on studing of distant radio galaxies, is designed.

Authors use SEDs of several models for different types of galaxies. ... The HTTP and e-mail access is organized to this system. ...

Morphology and Models of Faint Galaxy Counts D.C. Koo University of California Observatories/Lick Observatory University of California, Santa Cruz Most models of faint galaxy counts continue to rely on transforming observed distributions of morphology of local galaxies to estimate the distribution of K corrections. ... For example, at B ё 24, our no­evolution models predict counts that are only 50% shy of the observed (Koo, Gronwall, & Bruzual 1993, ApJL, 415, L21). ...

Chiaki Kobayashi, Ralph Sutherland How galaxies did form and evolution? - to answer this unsolved problem, we are simulating the formation and evolutionary history of galaxies in the Universe, including star formation, supernovae feedback, and chemical enrichment. Comparing the spacial distribution of elements within galaxies with observations, we will examine fundamental physical processes that drive galaxy formation. ...

... Colours of stars and galaxies hold information on intrinsic and extrinsic parameters, such as stellar temperatures and galaxy populations, selective absorption and colour changes due different dust contents and inclination angles of galaxies, as well as galaxy redshifts and evolution. ... The colour magnitude diagram of 65000 galaxies to which all above-mentioned quantities and others contribute can only be explained by comparison with simulations. ... Colours are also of technical help. ...

Next: Summary and conclusions Up: Preliminary analysis of the Previous: Sky and redshift distribution . To get an estimate of the external accuracy of IPCS redshifts we compared our results for common galaxies with the redshifts from CfA catalog (Huchra et al. ... For 18 galaxies in common we have mean difference = -27 km s -1 with the error 16 km s -1 and the standard deviation = 64 km s -1 . This comparison indicates that most of IPCS redshifts have uncertainty less than 100 km s -1 . ...
