Abundance Ratios and Galactic Chemical Evolution
The metallicity of stars in the Galaxy ranges from [Fe/H]=−4 to +0.5 dex, and the solar iron abundance is (Fe)= 7.51± 0.01 dex. The average values of [Fe/H] in the solar neighborhood, the halo, and Galactic bulge are−0.2,−1.6, and−0.2
متن کاملGalactic chemical evolution of Ba-peak elements
The chemical evolution of the Galaxy is followed for the elements affected by neutron capture, in particular for those in the atomic number range 56 to 63 (Ba, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm and Eu). Neutrons by the major C source, released in radiative conditions in the interpulse periods of TP-AGB stars, give rise to an efficient s-processing, making low mass AGB the major contributors to the chemical ev...
متن کاملInhomogeneous Chemical Evolution of the Galactic Halo: Abundance of r-process Elements
We present a stochastic model based on the Monte Carlo technique to study the inhomogeneous chemical evolution of the Galactic halo. In particular, we consider the local enrichment and subsequent mixing of the interstellar gas resulting from bursts of star formation, following explicitly the fragmentation and coalescence of interstellar gas clouds. The model takes into account the mixing of hal...
متن کاملPlanetary Nebulae as a Chemical Evolution Tool: Abundance Gradients
We have studied the time variation of the radial abundance gradients using samples of planetary nebulae, open clusters, cepheids and other young objects. Based on the analysis of O/H and S/H abundances for planetary nebulae and metallicities of the remaining objects, we concluded that the gradients have been flattening out in the last 8 Gyr with an average rate of the order of 0.005 – 0.010 dex...
متن کاملChemical evolution and abundance gradients in the Milky Way
We extend our model of chemical evolution that successfully account for the main observables in the solar neighborhood (Alibés, Labay & Canal 2001) to the whole Milky Way halo and disk. We assume an inside–out scenario for the assembling of the Galaxy through the infall of external material. Two different compositions of the infalling material have been considered: primordial and slightly metal...
