On the α/Fe Bimodality of the M31 Disks

On the α/Fe Bimodality of the M31 Disks

An outstanding question is whether the α /Fe bimodality exists in disk galaxies other than in the Milky Way. Here we present a bimodality using our state-of-the-art galactic chemical evolution models that can explain various observations in the Andromeda galaxy (M31) disks, namely, elemental abundan...
