Supernova Explosions and the Triggering of Galactic Fountains and Outflows
E. M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, C. Melioli, A. D'Ercole +2
We review here the effects of supernovae (SNe) explosions on the environment of star-forming galaxies. Randomly distributed, clustered SNe explosions cause the formation of hot sup…
What hydrodynamical simulations tell us about the radial properties of the stellar populations in Ellipticals
A. Pipino, A. D'Ercole, F. Matteucci
Elliptical galaxies probably host the most metal rich stellar populations in the Universe. The processes leading to both the formation and the evolution of such stars are discussed…
Evolution of Thermal Conducting Clouds Embedded in Galactic Winds
A. Marcolini, D. K. Strickland, A. D'Ercole +1
We performed high resolution hydrodynamical simulations of dense cool clouds embedded in supernova-driven galactic superwinds. Here we present preliminary results of our reference…
The Influence of Stellar Energetics and Dark Matter on the Chemical Evolution of Dwarf Irregulars
F. Bradamante, F. Matteucci, A. D'Ercole
A chemical evolution model following the evolution of the abundances of H, He, C, N, O and Fe for dwarf irregular and blue compact galaxies is presented. This model takes into acco…
