28 Jul 1999 | Subject: | astro-ph | Affiliation: | Universitätssternwarte, Göttingen, Germany | Abstract: | We describe the evolution of galaxies in a chemically consistent way accounting for the increasing initial metallicity of successive generations of stars. The enrichment of various types of model galaxies is compared with Damped Ly$alpha$ (= DLA) abundances over the redshift range from ${
m z sim 0}$ through ${
m z > 4.4}$. We discuss properties and composition of the galaxy population giving rise to DLA absorption. Beyond evolution of individual galaxies a change is found in the composition of DLA galaxy samples from high to low redshift. Spectrophotometric properties are predicted for optical identifications of DLA galaxies. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9907396 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
