Evolution of the dust-to-gas and dust-to-metal mass ratios for EIT08M. Calculations for galaxies with initial gas masses of Mini = 5 × 1010 M⊙ are presented in the first and second columns and for Mini = 1 × 1011 M⊙ in the third and fourth columns. Results are presented for a “maximum” (top row), a “high” (middle row), and a “low” (bottom row) SN dust production efficiency ϵi(m). Dust destruction is taken into account for Mcl = 100 M⊙ (first and third columns) and 0 M⊙ (second and fourth columns). The upper group of thick curves signifies the dust-to-metal mass ratio ηZd(t). The lower group of thin curves represents the dust-to-gas mass ratio ηd(t). The gas-to-dust ratio displayed in the figures is calculated for a Larson 2 IMF at an epoch of 400 Myr. The grey vertical dashed lines indicate epochs at 400, and 500 Myr after the onset of starburst. The black solid, green dotted, and blue dashed-dot-dotted lines represent the Salpeter, mass-heavy and Larson 2 IMF, respectively.
