Effects of Galactic fountains and delayed mixing in the chemical evolution of the Milky Way
E. Spitoni, F. Matteucci, S. Recchi +2
The majority of galactic chemical evolution models assumes the instantaneous mixing approximation (IMA). This assumption is probably not realistic as indicated by the existence of…
The Effect of Different Type Ia Supernova Progenitors on Galactic Chemical Evolution
F. Matteucci, E. Spitoni, S. Recchi +1
Our aim is to show how different hypotheses about Type Ia supernova progenitors can affect Galactic chemical evolution. We include different Type Ia SN progenitor models, identifie…
The chemical evolution of galaxies within the IGIMF theory: the [alpha/Fe] ratios and downsizing
Simone Recchi, Francesco Calura, Pavel Kroupa
The chemical evolution of galaxies is investigated within the framework of the star formation rate (SFR) dependent integrated galactic initial mass function (IGIMF). We study how t…
Galactic outflows and the chemical evolution of dwarf galaxies
Simone Recchi, Gerhard Hensler, Dalila Anelli
Galactic winds in dwarf galaxies are driven by the energy released by supernova explosions and stellar winds following an intense episode of star formation, which create an over-pr…
