Chemical consequences of low star formation rates: stochastically sampling the IMF

L. Carigi, X. Hernandez

When estimating the abundances which result from a given star formation event, it is customary to treat the IMF as a series of weight factors to be applied to the stellar yields, a…

Enrichment of the Intergalactic Medium by the Milky Way Subgroup

Leticia Carigi

I study the effect of the galaxies of the Milky Way subgroup on the chemical enrichment of the diffuse gas within the Local Group. The preferred model predicts that the present-day…

Photometric Constraints on Chemical Evolution Models of Irregular Galaxies

Leticia Carigi, Gustavo Bruzual

Photometric properties of stellar populations that evolve according to chemical evolution models developed by Carigi, Colin, & Peimbert (1999) and Carigi & Peimbert (2001) are expl…

Some Implications of Galactic Abundance Gradients Derived from H II Regions and Planetary Nebulae

Manuel Peimbert, Leticia Carigi

By comparing observed abundance gradients with those predicted by a chemodynamical model of the Galaxy the following results are obtained: there is a defficiency of O/H poor PNe in…

Dark Matter and the Chemical Evolution of Irregular Galaxies

L. Carigi, P. Colin, M. Peimbert

We present three types of chemical evolution models for irregular galaxies: closed-box with continuous star formation rates (SFRs), closed-box with bursting SFRs, and O-rich outflo…

Chemical Evolution of Irregular and Blue Compact Galaxies

L. Carigi, P. Colin, M. Peimbert +1

We discuss the chemical evolution of metal poor galaxies and conclude that their oxygen deficiency is not due to: the production of black holes by massive stars or a varying slope…
