Table 2

Differences among the mean abundances in the different stellar populations, as predicted by the different models (see text); they can be interpreted as gradients.

Model Δ ⟨[Fe/H]⟩  Δ ⟨[Mg/H]⟩  Δ ⟨[O/H]⟩  Δ ⟨[S/H]⟩  Δ ⟨[Si/H]⟩  Δ ⟨[Ba/H]⟩ 

MP–MR –0.521 dex –0.232 dex –0.214 dex –0.350 dex –0.325 dex –0.270 dex
EMP–IMP –0.145 dex –0.142 dex –0.137 dex –0.140 dex –0.145 dex –0.156 dex
bulge3  (0–1 kpc) –0.36 dex kpc-1 –0.29 dex kpc-1
bulge3  (0–0.5 kpc) –0.26 dex kpc-1 –0.21 dex kpc-1

Notes. Only for model bulge3 do we show the real gradient as Δ ⟨ [X/H] ⟩ /ΔR and do we compute it for two distance ranges from the Galactic center (0–1 kpc and 0–0.5 kpc).
