To compare photometric properties of galaxies at different redshifts, the fluxes need to be corrected for the changes of effective rest-frame wavelengths of filter bandpasses, called K-corrections. Usual approaches to compute them are based…
We present here a new set of evolutionary population synthesis models for template galaxies along the Hubble morphological sequence. The models, that account for the individual evolution of the bulge, disk, and halo components, provide…
The UV upturn in giant elliptical galaxies (gEs) implies significant corrections to the model-predicted optical colors of distant galaxies. However, since the origin of the UV upturn is still not clear, observers often use models that may…
We present a study of the color evolution of elliptical and S0 galaxies in six clusters of galaxies inside the redshift range 0.78 < z < 1.27. For each cluster, we used imaging from the Hubble Space Telescope to determine morphological…
Cross-filter K corrections for a sample of "normal" Type Ia supernovae (SNe) have been calculated for a range of epochs. With appropriate filter choices, the combined statistical and systematic K correction dispersion of the full sample…
We investigate the morphological properties of 494 galaxies selected from the GMASS survey at z>1, primarily in their optical rest frame, using HST images, from the CANDELS survey. We propose that the Hubble sequence of galaxy morphologies…
As a tool to interpret nearby and high redshift galaxy data from optical to K-band we present our chemically consistent spectrophotometric evolutionary synthesis models. These models take into account the increasing initial metallicity of…
We determine cosmological and evolutionary parameters from the 3CR K-band Hubble diagram and K-band number counts, assuming that the galaxies in question undergo pure luminosity evolution. Separately the two data sets are highly degenerate…
The advent of JWST (the James Webb Space Telescope) now allows entire star cluster populations to be imaged in galaxies at cosmologically significant redshifts, bringing with it the need to apply K-corrections to their magnitudes and colour…
Template fits to observed galaxy fluxes allow calculation of K-corrections and conversions among observations of galaxies at various wavelengths. We present a method for creating model-based template sets given a set of heterogeneous…
Subdwarf B stars (sdBs) can significantly change the ultraviolet spectra of populations at age t~1Gyr, and have been even included in the volutionary population synthesis (EPS) models by Han et al. (2007). In this study we present the…
We present a quantitative study of the far-ultraviolet (FUV) and optical morphology in 32 nearby galaxies and estimate the ``morphological k-correction'' expected if these objects were observed unevolved at high redshift. Using the common…
To compare photometric properties of galaxies at different redshifts, we need to correct fluxes for the change of effective rest-frame wavelengths of filter bandpasses, called $k$-corrections. At redshifts $z>0.3$, the wavelength shift…
We calculate theoretical isochrones in a consistent way for five filter pairs near the J and K band atmospheric windows (J-K, J-K', J-Ks, F110W-F205W, and F110W-F222M) using the Padova stellar evolutionary models of Girardi et al. We…
We present a new generation of chemically consistent evolutionary synthesis models for galaxies of various spectral types from E through Sd. The models follow the chemical enrichment of the ISM and take into account the increasing initial…
We have observed 28 local galaxies in the wavelength range between 1 and 2.4 mic in order to define template spectra of the normal galaxies along the Hubble sequence. Five galaxies per morphological type were observed in most cases, and the…
K-corrections, conversions between flux in observed bands to flux in rest-frame bands, are critical for comparing galaxies at various redshifts. These corrections often rely on fits to empirical or theoretical spectral energy distribution…

Photometric redshifts are studied with a template approach using data from HDF-N and -S . The problem of aliasing in photometric redshift estimates is investigated in some detail and found not to be a significant problem if at least four…
