Chemical evolution models with a new stellar nucleosynthesis
Numerical models for the chemical evolution of the Galaxy have been computed with the new stellar yields published by Maeder (1992). These metallicity dependent yields represent an important improvement in the chemical evolution of galaxies but there are still uncertainties in the stellar evolution which prevent completely satisfactory results. From the comparison of the model predictions with ...
متن کاملChemical element transport in stellar evolution models
Stellar evolution computations provide the foundation of several methods applied to study the evolutionary properties of stars and stellar populations, both Galactic and extragalactic. The accuracy of the results obtained with these techniques is linked to the accuracy of the stellar models, and in this context the correct treatment of the transport of chemical elements is crucial. Unfortunatel...
متن کاملBig-Bang Nucleosynthesis and Galactic Chemical Evolution
Deuterium is the best indicator of the baryon density; however, only its present abundance is known (and only locally) and its chemical evolution is intertwined with that of He. Because galactic abundances are spatially heterogeneous, mean chemical-evolution models are not well suited for extrapolating the pre-solar D and He abundances to their primeval values. We introduce a new approach which...
متن کاملHypernova Nucleosynthesis and Galactic Chemical Evolution
We study nucleosynthesis in ’hypernovae’, i.e., supernovae with very large explosion energies ( ∼ > 10 ergs) for both spherical and aspherical explosions. The hypernova yields compared to those of ordinary corecollapse supernovae show the following characteristics: 1) Complete Siburning takes place in more extended region, so that the mass ratio between the complete and incomplete Si burning re...
متن کاملNucleosynthesis and Chemical Evolution of Oxygen
Of the elements strictly synthesized in stars, oxygen is by far the most abundantly produced. We review the nucleosynthesis and Galactic chemical evolution of this important element. We then review its isotopic composition in presolar grains recovered from primitive meteorites and from interplanetary dust particles. As we describe, knowledge of these isotopic compositions provide important cons...
