Metallicity gradients as detectors of matter distribution in elliptical galaxies
Abstract
In this work we discuss on the basis of the instantaneous recycling approximation the possibility of determining a relation between matter distribution (luminous and dark) in elliptical galaxies and the observed metallicity gradients. A particular case is developed in detail yielding an analitycal expression of the above relation.
