Stellar Yields and Chemical Evolution
Brad K. Gibson
Several speakers at IAU Symposium #187 (Cosmic Chemical Evolution) alluded to the zeroth-order agreement between Type II supernovae (SNe) stellar yield compilations, as predicted b…
Infall Models of Elliptical Galaxies: Further Evidence for a Top-Heavy Initial Mass Function
Brad K. Gibson, Francesca Matteucci
Chemical and photometric models of elliptical galaxies with infall of primordial gas, and subsequent ejection of processed material via galactic winds, are described. Ensuring that…
Supernovae Types Ia/II and Intracluster Medium Enrichment
Brad K. Gibson, Mike Loewenstein, Richard F. Mushotzky
We re-examine the respective roles played by supernovae (SNe) Types Ia and II in enriching the intracluster medium (ICM) of galaxy clusters, in light of the recent downward shift o…
Galactic Winds and the Photo-chemical Evolution of Elliptical Galaxies: The Classic Model Revisited
Brad K. Gibson
We consider the simultaneous chemical, photometric, and gaseous thermal energy evolution of elliptical galaxies. The evolution of chemical abundances in the intracluster medium (IC…
