Notes. In the upper part of the table, we show the chemical composition of the gas flow into the NSD. In the lower one, we indicate the accretion timescale, τ, loading factor, ω, and star formation efficiency, ν from our MCMC estimates for the four considered models. In the last row, we report the observed samples adopted as constraints in the MCMC analysis.
Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.
Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
