Abundance ratios in hierarchical galaxy formation
The chemical enrichment and stellar abundance ratios of galaxies which form in a hierarchical clustering scheme are calculated. For this purpose I adopt the star formation histories (SFH) as they are delivered by semi-analytic models in Kauffmann (1996). It turns out that the average SFH of cluster ellipticals does not yield globally α-enhanced stellar populations. The star burst that occurs wh...
متن کاملMetallicity and Physical Conditions in the Magellanic Bridge
We present a new analysis of the diffuse gas in the Magellanic Bridge (RA& 3) based on HST/STIS E140M and FUSE spectra of 2 early-type stars lying within the Bridge and a QSO behind it. We derive the column densities of H I (from Lyα), N I, O I, Ar I, Si II, S II, and Fe II of the gas in the Bridge. Using the atomic species, we determine the first gas-phase metallicity of the Magellanic Bridge,...
متن کاملOpacity, Metallicity, and Cepheid Period Ratios in the Galaxy Andmagellanic Clouds
Linear pulsation calculations are employed to reproduce the bump Cepheid resonance (P 2/Po = 0.5 at Po ~ 10 days) and to model, individually, the PdPo period ratios for the dozen known Galactic beat Cepheids. Convection is ignored. The results point to a range of metallicity among the Cepheids, perhaps as large as 0.01 ~ Z ~ 0.02, with no evidence for any star exceeding Z = 0.02. We find masses...
متن کاملAstrophysics. Multiple images of a highly magnified supernova formed by an early-type cluster galaxy lens.
In 1964, Refsdal hypothesized that a supernova whose light traversed multiple paths around a strong gravitational lens could be used to measure the rate of cosmic expansion. We report the discovery of such a system. In Hubble Space Telescope imaging, we have found four images of a single supernova forming an Einstein cross configuration around a redshift z = 0.54 elliptical galaxy in the MACS J...
متن کاملCONSISTENT USE OF TYPE Ia SUPERNOVAE HIGHLY MAGNIFIED BY GALAXY CLUSTERS TO CONSTRAIN THE COSMOLOGICAL PARAMETERS
We discuss how Type Ia supernovae (SNe) strongly magnified by foreground galaxy clusters should be self-consistently treated when used in samples fitted for the cosmological parameters. While the cluster lens magnification of a SN can be well constrained from sets of multiple images of various background galaxies with measured redshifts, its value is typically dependent on the fiducial set of c...
