Evolving Extragalactic Background and Luminosity Density

Comoving spectral luminosity density and Extragalactic background light (EBL) from 0.5 to 5 microns (comoving wavelength) from galaxies as predicted using the mean spectral energy distribution (SED) of galaxies measured in Lake and Wright (2016, DOI: 10.21105/astro.1603.0729) and the luminosity function (LF) Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) posterior chains from Lake et al. (2017c). The LF posterior chains are available from Figshare under DOI: 10.6084/m9.figshare.4109625 . The files named 'SpectralLumaDens' contain the evolving spectral luminosity density, in units of kJy / Mpc. The files named 'EvolvingEBL' contain the evolving EBL in kJy / sr. Both files are available in flexible image transport system (fits, https://fits.gsfc.nasa.gov/) format. A full description of how these files were produced is in Lake et al. (2019).
