The dust-to-stellar mass ratio as a valuable tool to probe the evolution of local and distant star forming galaxies
F. Calura, F. Pozzi, G. Cresci +6
The survival of dust grains in galaxies depends on various processes. Dust can be produced in stars, it can grow in the interstellar medium and be destroyed by astration and inters…
A new galactic chemical evolution model with dust: results for dwarf irregular galaxies and DLA systems
Lorenzo Gioannini, Francesca Matteucci, Giovanni Vladilo +1
We present a galactic chemical evolution model which adopts updated prescriptions for all the main processes governing the dust cycle. We follow in detail the evolution of the abun…
A simple and general method for solving detailed chemical evolution with delayed production of iron and other chemical elements
Fiorenzo Vincenzo, Francesca Matteucci, Emanuele Spitoni
We present a theoretical method for solving the chemical evolution of galaxies, by assuming an instantaneous recycling approximation for chemical elements restored by massive stars…
Lighting up stars in chemical evolution models: the CMD of Sculptor
Fiorenzo Vincenzo, Francesca Matteucci, Thomas J. L. de Boer +2
We present a novel approach to draw the synthetic color-magnitude diagram of galaxies, which can provide - in principle - a deeper insight in the interpretation and understanding o…
Nitrogen and oxygen abundances in the Local Universe
Fiorenzo Vincenzo, Francesco Belfiore, Roberto Maiolino +2
We present chemical evolution models aimed at reproducing the observed (N/O) vs. (O/H) abundance pattern of star forming galaxies in the Local Universe. We derive gas-phase abundan…
Are ancient dwarf satellites the building blocks of the Galactic halo?
E. Spitoni, F. Vincenzo, F. Matteucci +1
According to the current cosmological cold dark matter paradigm, the Galactic halo could have been the result of the assemblage of smaller structures. Here we explore the hypothesi…
