Free parameters and their priors of the different parametric SFH models.

Parameter Limits Prior SFH
log (7, 12) Uniform All
z/z (0.001, 1) Logarithmic All
τ/Myr (1, 1000) Uniform DPL
α (0.01, 1000) Logarithmic DPL
β (0.01, 1000) Logarithmic DPL
(1, 1000) Uniform Constant
(2, 1500) Uniform Constant
a*/Myr (2, 1000) Uniform Exponential
Delayed
Lognormal
τa/Myr (1, 1000) Uniform Exponential
Delayed
Lognormal

Notes. The actual upper limit on the prior for a*, , , and τ is set to be the age of the Universe at the redshift of the galaxy.
