In this paper we present a quantitative analysis of the chemical abundances in “monolithic” N-body-Tree-SPH models of elliptical galaxies to determine whether the ratio increases with the galaxy mass as suggested by observational data.
Key words: galaxies: abundances / galaxies: elliptical and lenticular, cD / galaxies: evolution
