Simple questions…
What determines: - the star formation rate (SFR) of galaxies?- the rate of change of the SFR?
Must be something about the gas…

Measuring Gas in Galaxies:Direct: HI, CO, etc.
Indirect: Star Formation
Schmidt-Kennicutt Law, “Photometric gas fractions” (e.g. Bell et al. 2003, Knappanan 2004, Reddy et al.
2006)
Indirect: Dust Attenuation
(e.g. Wang & Heckman 1996, Bell 2003,GALEX: Johnson et al. 2007, Martin et al. 2007)

Same at z~1(e.g. Noeske et al. 2007)

Summary and Conclusions UV-optical CMD displays widely separated blue and red sequences and “green valley”. New aspects are:
• Improved measurements of physical quantities
• Identification of ‘locus’ of SF sequence galaxies and associated scaling relations
• New understanding of the volume-weighted distribution and implications for evolutionary scenarios
In Nearby Galaxy sample HI gas fractions correlate with SFR/M*, but with interesting scatter
Gas properties of galaxies near ‘transition mass’ (log M* ~ 10.5) to moderate gas fractions (1-10%)
worth investigating
