The Chemical Evolution of the Galaxy: The Two-Infall Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We present a new chemical evolution model for the Galaxy that assumes two main infall episodes, for the formation of the halo-thick disk and thin disk, respectively.

Globular cluster formation and evolution in the context of cosmological galaxy assembly: open questions [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society A, 2018
We discuss some of the key open questions regarding the formation and evolution of globular clusters (GCs) during galaxy formation and assembly within a cosmological framework.

JWST Census for the Mass–Metallicity Star Formation Relations at z = 4–10 with Self-consistent Flux Calibration and Proper Metallicity Calibrators

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We present the evolution of the mass–metallicity (MZ) relation at z = 4–10 derived with 135 galaxies identified in JWST/NIRSpec data taken from the three major public spectroscopy programs of ERO, GLASS, and CEERS.

On the Chemical Evolution of Our Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 1996
We have investigated the chemical evolution of the solar neighborhood with a particular emphasis on the helium abundance and the current supernova (SN) rate, while taking into account the effects of the stellar mass loss on nucleosynthesis in stars. We found that the Scalo IMF can reproduce the solar-helium abundance as well as the current ratio of ...

VLT/FLAMES high-resolution chemical abundances in Sculptor: a textbook dwarf spheroidal galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
We present detailed chemical abundances for 99 red-giant branch stars in the centre of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, which have been obtained from high-resolution VLT/FLAMES spectroscopy.

ChemicalUniverseMachine. I. Uncovering the Cosmic Evolution of Metals in the Galaxy–Interstellar Medium–Circumgalactic Medium Ecosystem

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present an empirical chemical evolution model that explains the distribution of metals in the interstellar medium (ISM) and the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of galaxies based on the U niverse M achine and N eutral U niverse M achine models in the ...

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.

Revisiting the Fundamental Metallicity Relation with Observation and Simulation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The gas-phase metallicity of galaxies is regulated by multiple astrophysical processes, which makes it a crucial diagnostic of galaxy formation and evolution.
