The Chemical Evolution of the Milky Way
arXiv:astro-ph/9912370 · doi:10.1007/978-94-010-0938-6_50
Abstract
The field of chemical evolution modeling of the Galaxy is experiencing in the last years a phase of high activity and important achievements. There are, however, several open questions which still need to be answered. In this review I summarize what have been the most important achievements and what are some of the most urgent questions to be answered.
