International GTC Workshop - Science with GTC 1st-Light Instruments and the LMT (2º. 2005. Ciudad de México, México)We have studied in detail the properties of local active star-forming galaxies from the UCM survey, and in particular their star-formation histories. We have quantified the relative importance of the current episode of star formation in comparison to the underlying older stellar populations. We have also determined the total stellar mass function and burst mass function for the UCM sample using the M/L calculated for each galaxy. Integrating this mass function we obtained the contribution of the star-forming galaxies to the total stellar mass density of the local Universe.engbook parthttp://www.astroscu.unam.mx/rmaa/RMxAC..24/PDF/RMxAC..24_jzamorano.pdfopen access52LuminosityAstrofísicaAstronomía (Física)
