Theoretical color-magnitude diagrams and the star forming histories of interacting open multi-population model galaxies: bursts and busts.

VALLE G., CIGNONI M. and SHORE S.N.

Abstract (from CDS):

This note presents theoretical color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) and metallicity evolution for Galactic multipopulation models coupled to stellar evolution models for systems undergoing stripping and re-accretion of ambient material, called ``open'' systems in our recent studies (Valle et al., 2005A&A...435..551V). We show that the observables for such systems, in particular those related to the recovered star formation as a function of time, are ambiguous - systems with non-monotonic star formation rates can appear as either bursting systems or galaxies with a hiatus in the star formation.
