| Title | The Chemical Evolution of the Galaxy |
| Author(s) | Matteucci, Francesca |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2003. |
| Description | XIV, 285 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book is based partly on a. lecture course given at the University of Tri?? este, but mostly on my own research experience in the field of galactic chemical evolution. The subject of galactic chemical evolution was started and developed by Beat?? rice Tinsley in the seventies and now is a flourishing subject. This book is dedi?? cated to the chemical evolution of our Galaxy and aims at giving an up-to-date review of what we have learned since Tinsley's pioneering efforts. At the time of writing, in fact, books of this kind were not available with the exception of the excellent book by Bernard Pagel on "Nucleosynthesis and Chemical Evolution of Galaxies" (Cambridge University Press, 1997), and the subject of galactic chem?? ical evolution has appeared only as short chapters in books devoted to other subjects. Therefore, I felt that a book of this kind could be useful. The book summarizes the observational facts which allow us to reconstruct the chemical history of our Galaxy, in particular the abundances in stars and in?? terstellar medium; in the last decade, a great deal of observational work, mostly abundance determinations in stars in the solar vicinity, has shed light on the pro?? duction and distribution of chemical elements. Even more recently more abun?? dance data have accumulated for external galaxies at both low and high redshift, thus providing precious information on the chemical evolution of different types of galaxies and on the early stages of galaxy evolution |

| Title | The Origin of the Galaxy and Local Group : Saas-Fee Advanced Course 37 Swiss Society for Astrophysics and Astronomy |
| Author(s) | Bland-Hawthorn, Joss;Freeman, Kenneth;Matteucci, Francesca;Moore, Ben |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2014. |
| Description | IX, 231 p. 106 illus., 70 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This volume contains the updated and??expanded lecture notes of the 37th Saas-Fee Advanced Course organised by the Swiss Society for Astrophysics and Astronomy. It offers the most comprehensive and up to date review of one of the hottest research topics in astrophysics - how our Milky Way galaxy formed. Joss Bland-Hawthorn & Ken Freeman lectured on Near Field Cosmology - The Origin of the Galaxy and the Local Group. Francesca Matteucci???s chapter is on Chemical evolution of the Milky Way and its Satellites. As designed by the SSAA, books in this series ??? and this one too ??? are targeted at graduate and PhD students and young researchers in astronomy, astrophysics and cosmology. Lecturers and researchers entering the field will also benefit from the book |

| Title | Chemical Evolution of Galaxies |
| Author(s) | Matteucci, Francesca |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2012. |
| Description | XIV, 226 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The term ???chemical evolution of galaxies??? refers to the evolution of abundances of chemical species in galaxies, which is due to nuclear processes occurring in stars and to gas flows into and out of galaxies. This book deals with the chemical evolution of galaxies of all morphological types (ellipticals, spirals and irregulars) and stresses the importance of the star formation histories in determining the properties of stellar populations in different galaxies. The topic is approached in a didactical and logical manner via galaxy evolution models which are compared with observational results obtained in the last two decades: The reader is given an introduction to the concept of chemical abundances and learns about the main stellar populations in our Galaxy as well as about the classification of galaxy types and their main observables. In the core of the book, the construction and solution of chemical evolution models are discussed in detail, followed by descriptions and interpretations of observations of the chemical evolution of the Milky Way, spheroidal galaxies, irregular galaxies and of cosmic chemical evolution. The aim of this book is to provide an introduction to students as well as to amend our present ideas in research; the book also summarizes the efforts made by authors in the past several years in order to further future research in the field |
