We have been able to measure oxygen abundances using the direct method for objects spanning four orders of magnitude in mass, and probing the last 4 Gyr of galaxy evolution. We have found preliminary evidence that the metallicity evolution is consistent with expectations based on age-metallicity relations obtained with low resolution stellar spectra of resolved Local Group galaxies.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-01-31T20:28:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "mass-metallicity relation", "low resolution stellar spectra", "resolved local group galaxies", "measure oxygen abundances", "direct method" ], "tags": [ "conference paper" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1279763, "adsabs": "2014MmSAI..85..417S" } } }
