Chemical and Photometric Evolution Models for Disk, Irregular, and Low Mass Galaxies

Figure 2

The evolution of the infall gas rate along the redshift for all radial regions of our 44 galaxy mass values represented by the shaded zone. The solid lines show the evolution of the whole infall rate of the same 7 theoretical galaxies shown in Figure 1 with the same color coding. The higher the total mass, the higher the infall rate. Dashed purple and yellow lines represent the prescriptions from Dekel et al. [77] and Faucher-Giguère et al. [78], respectively. The dotted purple lines are the Dekel et al. [77] prescriptions for masses and , while the red hexagon in the present time is the estimated value given by Sancisi et al. [79].
