Galacti chemical evolution: Hygrogen through zinc
Open accessAbstract
Using the output from a grid of 60 Type II supernova models (Woosley \& Weaver 1994) of varying mass (11 $\ltaprx$ M/M\sun $\ltaprx$ 40) and metallicity (0, 10$^{-4}$, 0.01, 0.1, and 1 Z\sol), the chemical evolution of 76 stable isotopes, from hydrogen to zinc, is calculated. The chemical evolution calculation employs a simple dynamical model for the Galaxy (infall with a 4 billion year $e$-folding time scale onto a exponential disk and 1/r$^2$ bulge), and standard evolution parameters, such as a Salpeter initial mass function and a quadratic Schmidt star formation rate. The theoretical results are compared in detail with observed stellar abundances in stars with metallicities in the range -3.0 $\ltaprx$ [Fe/H] $\ltaprx$ 0.0 dex. While our discussion focuses on the solar neighborhood where there are the most observations, the supernovae rates, an intrinsically Galactic quantity, are also discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
