摘要

Large-scale homogeneous surveys of Galactic stars may indicate that the elemental abundance gradient evolves with cosmic time, which is a phenomenon that was not foreseen in existing models of Galactic chemical evolution ( GCE). If this phenomenon is confirmed in future studies, we can show that this effect, at least in part, is due to largescale winds that once enriched the disk. These set up a steep abundance gradient in the inner disk (R_(GC) ≤ 14 kpc). At the close of the wind phase, chemical enrichment through accretion of metal-poor material from the halo to the disk gradually reduced the metallicity of the inner region, whereas a slight increase in the metallicity proceeded beyond the solar circle. Our "wind+infall" model accounts for a flattening of the abundance gradient in the inner disk, in agreement with observations. Accordingly, we propose that enrichment by large-scale winds is a crucial factor in chemical evolution in the disk. We anticipate ihat rapid flattening of the abundance gradient is the hallmark of disk galaxies with significant central bulges.
