New detailed stellar yields of several elemental species are derived for massive stars in a wide range of masses (from 6 to 120 Msol) and metallicities (Z= 0.0004, 0.004, 0.008, 0.02, 0.05). Our calculations are based on the Padova evolutionary tracks and take into account recent results on stellar evolution, such as overshooting and quiescent mass-loss, paying major attention to the effects of the initial chemical composition of the star. We finally include modern results on explosive nucleosynthesis in SNae by Woosley & Weaver 1995. The issue of the chemical yields of Very Massive Objects (from 120 to 1000 Msol) is also addressed. Our grid of stellar yields for massive stars is complementary to the results by Marigo et al. (1996, 1997) on the evolution and nucleosynthesis of low and intermediate mass stars, also based on the Padova evolutionary tracks. Altogether, they represent a complete set of stellar yields of unprecedented homogeneity and self-consistency. Our new stellar yields are inserted in a code for the chemical evolution of the Galactic disc with infall of primordial gas, according to the formulation first suggested by Talbot & Arnett (1971, 1973, 1975) and Chiosi (1980). As a first application, the code is used to develop a model of the chemical evolution of the Solar Vicinity, with a detailed comparison to the available observational constraints.

  1. The In Situ Growth of Stellar-mass "Light" Seed Black Holes in Nuclear Star Clusters

    astro-ph.GA 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.5 of 10

    With fiducial feedback-regulated accretion, in-situ light seed black holes in nuclear star clusters grow only to ~400–500 solar masses; runaway growth to ~10^6 solar masses requires an unrealistically high Bondi captu...

  2. How Massive Can a Population III Starburst Be? Simulating the First Galaxies with High Lyman-Werner Background

    astro-ph.GA 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Strong Lyman-Werner radiation can delay star formation in 10^8-solar-mass halos, enabling Population III starbursts of up to ~10^6 solar masses before internal metal enrichment ends them.

  3. Metallicity Gradients in Modern Cosmological Simulations II: The Role of Bursty Versus Smooth Feedback at High-Redshift

    astro-ph.GA 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Bursty stellar feedback produces systematically flatter metallicity gradients than smooth feedback in high-redshift galaxies across multiple simulation suites.

  4. The ALPINE-CRISTAL-JWST Survey: The Fast Metal Enrichment of Massive Galaxies at z~5

    astro-ph.GA 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Massive galaxies at z~5 were already as enriched in oxygen as their z~2 counterparts, with an FMR whose intrinsic scatter is about five times larger than locally.

  5. Measuring and modelling the Splash with APOGEE/Gaia and ARTEMIS

    astro-ph.GA 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The authors show that Splash-like stellar populations in simulated Milky Way-mass galaxies track the mass of retrograde accreted stars rather than the single largest merger, and that the observed Splash chemistry is t...

  6. A COMPASS to Model Comparison and Simulation-Based Inference in Galactic Chemical Evolution

    astro-ph.GA 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A diffusion-based simulation inference framework selects NuGrid AGB plus IllustrisTNG core-collapse yields as the best explanation for solar-type stellar abundances, and infers a steep IMF slope and high SN Ia normalization.

  7. Columba: isolated dwarf galaxy populations in diverse cosmological environments simulated with a cold interstellar medium

    astro-ph.GA 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    New hydrodynamical simulations show that dwarf galaxy stellar mass-halo mass relations and star formation histories are more influenced by host halo concentration than by the 5 cMpc scale environment.

  8. Co-evolution of Supermassive Black Holes and their Host L* galaxies: implications for Milky Way and M31

    astro-ph.GA 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    ARTEMIS and EAGLE simulations classify L* galaxies by central BH-to-stellar-mass ratio and trace how merger history drives divergence in BH growth, star formation, and morphology, offering an explanation for the obser...

    astro-ph.GA 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    Rotating massive-star yields at 300 km/s improve agreement with metal-poor Sc, Ti, V abundances in one-zone GCE models, with IMF slope variations providing secondary modulation.

    astro-ph.GA 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 2.0 of 10

    The paper reviews dust production, destruction and growth processes in galaxies, compiles literature data on comoving dust mass density, presents evidence for and against interstellar dust growth, and identifies the h...

  11. Nucleosynthesis and the chemical enrichment of galaxies

    astro-ph.GA 2025-06 unverdicted

    A review of stellar nucleosynthesis and galactic chemical evolution, based largely on the author's K20 yield models and published chemodynamical simulations.
