Notes. For each SFH model and both for actively star forming and passively evolving mock sources, we list the parameter symbols (normalised to their unit) and the prior upper and lower limits. The symbols used are consistent to those used in Sect. 2 and summarised in Table B.3.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
