Notes. Parameters used in CIGALE to model the SFH (upper rows) and dust attenuation (lower rows). Meaning of the parameters: (a) SFH: Age – Age of the main stellar population in the galaxy, in Myr; τmaine-folding time of the main stellar population model, in Myr; Agebq – Age of the burst or quench episode, in Myr; and rSFR – Ratio of the SFR after or before Agebq, values larger than one correspond to an enhancement of the SFR whereas values lower than one will correspond to a decrease; (b) Dust attenuation: E(B − V)lines – Colour excess of the nebular lines light for both the young and old population; E(B − V)factor – Reduction factor to apply on E(B − V)lines to compute E(B − V)s the stellar continuum attenuation. Both young and old populations are attenuated by E(B − V)s; UV bump wavelength – Central wavelength of the UV bump in nm; UV bump width – Width (FWHM) of the UV bump in nm; UV bump amplitude – Amplitude of the UV bump. For the Milky Way: 3; Δδ – Slope delta of the power law that modifies the attenuation curve.
