Interstellar Nitrogen Isotope Ratios: Measurements on Tracers of C14N and C15N

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The nitrogen isotope ratio ^14 N/ ^15 N is a powerful tool to trace Galactic stellar nucleosynthesis and constrain Galactic chemical evolution. Previous observations have found lower ^14 N/ ^15 N ratios in the Galactic center and higher values in the ...

Constraining the Low-mass End of the Stellar-to-halo Mass Relation with Surveys of Satellite Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The abundance of satellite galaxies is set by the hierarchical assembly of their host halo. We leverage this to investigate the low-mass end ( M _H < 10 ^11 M _⊙ ) of the stellar-to-halo mass relation (SHMR), which is key to constraining theories of ...

Figuring Out Gas and Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE). VIII. Complex and Stochastic Metallicity Gradients at z > 2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Gas-phase metallicity gradients are a crucial element in understanding the chemical evolution of galaxies. We use the FOGGIE simulations to study the metallicity gradients (∇ Z ) of six Milky Way–like galaxies throughout their evolution.

Two-process Model and Residual Abundance Analysis of the Milky Way Massive Satellites

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The “two-process model” is a promising technique for interpreting stellar chemical abundance data from large-scale surveys (e.g., the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV/V and the Galactic Archeology with HERMES survey), enabling more quantitative empirical ...
