The SAMI Galaxy Survey: : extraplanar gas, galactic winds, and their association with star formation history
(2016-04-01)
We investigate a sample of 40 local, main-sequence, edge-on disc galaxies using integral field spectroscopy with the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral field spectrograph (SAMI) Galaxy Survey to understand the link between ...
Quantifying AGN-Driven Metal-Enhanced Outflows in Chemodynamical Simulations
(2015-09-30)
We show the effects of AGN-driven outflows on the ejection of heavy elements using our cosmological simulations, where super-massive black holes originate from the first stars. In the most massive galaxy, we have identified ...
Subclasses of Type Ia Supernovae as the origin of [α/Fe] ratios in dwarf spheroidal galaxies
(2015-04-23)
Recent extensive observations of Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia) have revealed the existence of a diversity of SNe Ia, including SNe Iax. We introduce two possible channels in the single degenerate scenario: 1) double detonations ...
Light, Alpha, and Fe-Peak Element Abundances in the Galactic Bulge
(2014-09-09)
We present radial velocities and chemical abundances of O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu for a sample of 156 red giant branch stars in two Galactic bulge fields centered near (l,b)=(+5.25,-3.02) and (0,-12). ...
Elemental and isotopic abundances and chemical evolution of galaxies
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2012-02-15)
Elemental and isotopic abundances are the fossils of galactic archaeology. The observed [X/Fe]-[Fe/H] relations in the Galactic bulge and disk and the mass-metallicity relation of galaxies are roughly reproduced with ...
