Notes. The prior PDFs are Gaussians centred on μS with variance 
. These PDFs are truncated at 0 except for the slopes of the IMF. The μS are taken from Fig. 7 of Mor et al. (2018). The μS of the nine 
are obtained by integrating, for each age interval, the exponential SFH given in the mentioned figure. For the eleven density parameters the σS is chosen big enough to allow the 0 to be inside 1σ. The σS for the hR is chosen to be the same as resulting in Mor et al. (2018). For the three slopes of the IMF the σS is set to 0.5.
