Abstract
We present GALEV evolutionary synthesis models for Simple Stellar Populations (SSPs = single burst, single metallicity) like star clusters or galaxy pixels and for galaxies of various types on the basis of their respective typical star formation histories, ranging from exponentially declining on a timescale of 1Gyr for the classical elliptical model through constant for Sd galaxies, and also allowing for starbursts of various strengths occurring at various evolutionary stages. Models yield the time evolution of the stellar population in terms of color-magnitude diagrams CMDs () and consistently accounting for evolutionary and cosmological corrections as well as for the attenuation of light from distant galaxies by intervening HI.
