Notes. In boldface parameters used to create artificial galaxies (Sect. 5). Values of input parameters used for the SED fitting with CIGALE. Bold face values are used for the mock catalogue in Sect. 5.

(1)

In case of two populations, AV corresponds to the attenuation of the youngest population and a reduction factor of 0.5 is applied to the visual attenuation of the older stellar population (see text).

(2)

One exponentially decreasing stellar population with a younger stellar component with a constant SFR.

(3)

Negative values of τ1 for exponentially increasing SFRs.

(4)

In case of two stellar populations, only the age of the oldest stellar population is fixed.
