The Chemical Evolution of the Galaxy: The Two‐Infall Model [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 1997 In this paper we present a new chemical evolution model for the Galaxy which assumes two main infall episodes for the formation of halo-thick disk and thin disk, respectively. We do not try to take into account explicitly the evolution of the halo but we implicitly assume that the timescale for the formation of the halo was of the same order as the ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We search for local extremely metal-poor galaxies (EMPGs), selecting photometric candidates by broadband color excess and machine-learning techniques with the SDSS photometric data.

Nitrogen isotopes in the interstellar medium: A chemical journey across the Galaxy [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 One of the most important tools to investigate the chemical history of our Galaxy and our own Solar System is to measure the isotopic fractionation of chemical elements. This is the process that distributes the less abundant stable isotopes of an element

JWST/NIRSpec Measurements of Extremely Low Metallicities in High Equivalent Width Lyα Emitters
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Deep Very Large Telescope/MUSE optical integral field spectroscopy has recently revealed an abundant population of ultra-faint galaxies ( M _UV ≈ −15; 0.01 L _⋆ ) at z = 2.9−6.7 due to their strong Ly α emission with no detectable continuum.

Evolution of the Mass–Metallicity Relation from Redshift z ≈ 8 to the Local Universe
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 A tight positive correlation between the stellar mass and the gas-phase metallicity of galaxies has been observed at low redshifts. The redshift evolution of this correlation can strongly constrain theories of galaxy evolution.

The Chemical Evolution of the Galaxy [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1985 Over the last few years, our picture of the chemical evolution of the Galaxy has changed substantially. These changes are of interest because chemical evolution provides a common point of contact for most astrophysical processes of importance to galaxy evolution.

The Origin of the Nuclear Star-forming Ring in NGC 3182
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We investigate the stellar and ionized gas kinematics, and stellar populations of NGC 3182 galaxy using integral field spectrograph data from the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey. We try to clarify the nature of the ring structure in NGC 3182.

Disk Galaxy Models Driven by Stochastic Self-Propagating Star Formation
Open Astronomy, 2010 We present a model of chemical and spectrophotometric evolution of disk galaxies based on a stochastic self-propagating star formation scenario. The model incorporates galaxy formation through the process of accretion, chemical and photometric evolution ...
