Fig. 38

Similar as in Fig. 36 but now for VHWHM(5007) and VHWHM(Hβ) vs. M(Hβ) predicted from model sequences with different central stars and the same metallicity. Evolution proceeds again from faint magnitudes and low velocities towards faint magnitudes and higher velocities. These theoretical predictions are again compared with the Galactic bulge sample of Richer et al. (2009, 2010a) already used in Fig. 37. Plotted are only objects with unsplit lines, and thus the region containing higher velocities at low brightness is devoid of objects. Each object (except for a few cases) is plotted twice, with its VHWHM(5007) (filled symbols) and VHWHM(Hβ)   (= VHWHM(Hα)) (open symbols). We assumed a distance of 7.5 kpc for all objects. The theoretical profiles are broadened by a Gaussian with FWHM of 11 km s-1 in order to resemble the observations.
