The evolution of the content of heavy elements in galaxies, the relative chemical
abundances, their spatial distribution, and how these scale with various galactic properties …

The first gravitational wave detections of mergers between black holes and neutron stars
represent a remarkable new regime of high-energy transient astrophysics. The signals …

Simple relations for deriving the oxygen abundance in H ii regions with intensities of the
three strong emission lines R 2, R 3, and N 2 (R calibration) or S 2, R 3, and N 2 (S …

A tight positive correlation between the stellar mass and the gas-phase metallicity of
galaxies has been observed at low redshifts. The redshift evolution of this correlation can …

We investigate the oxygen and nitrogen abundance distributions across the optical disks of
130 nearby late-type galaxies using around 3740 published spectra of H ii regions. We use …

Context. In this work we study the stellar mass–metallicity relation (MZR) of an extended
sample of star-forming galaxies in the local Universe and its possible dependence on the …

We present the results from a Very Large Telescope/SINFONI and Keck/NIRSPEC near-
infrared spectroscopic survey of 16 Lyα emitters (LAEs) at z= 2.1–2.5 in the COSMOS and …

A full appreciation of the role played by gas metallicity (Z), star formation rate (SFR) and
stellar mass (M*) is fundamental to understanding how galaxies form and evolve. The …

We present evidence for stochastic star formation histories in low-mass (M*< 1010 M⊙)
galaxies from observations within the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey. For∼ 73 …

We derive the metallicity (traced by the O/H abundance) of the narrow-line region (NLR) of
108 Seyfert galaxies as well as radial metallicity gradients along their galaxy discs and of …
